Re: How many puppies???
She looks like she is getting close.
I am like that also..I like to know when my females start to contract and when pups are born so I can monitor how they are doing and if it goes past 3 hours or they are pushing and pushing and there is no progression I can be safe and head to the vets if needed...
I know a guy that lost his setter not to long ago ..she was in a whelp box set up down at the kennels ...apparently the pup was stuck so the poor dog was contracting all night not being able to push the pup out and when he looked in on her in the morning she was just laying there barely alive so he rushed her to the vet he lost the litter and his dog. I have to much invested in my dogs to not spend that extra effort for them.

Re: How many puppies???
Think we all are interested in our dogs enough to take good care of them and that includes doing what is necessary to insure they are doing OK. Would be crazy to do anything else.kninebirddog wrote:She looks like she is getting close.

It's not how many breaths you have taken but how many times it has been taken away!
Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

Re: How many puppies???
I just thought this was an unnecessary death of a nice female and a litter of pups. I find that at least with my females they do better and remain calmer when I am around as when I try and leave them they are bound to try and follow me to where I am atezzy333 wrote:Think we all are interested in our dogs enough to take good care of them and that includes doing what is necessary to insure they are doing OK.

Re: How many puppies???
I appreciate all the advice I can get. We've had Brittanys for 11 yrs now, we've competed for 6 yrs, we've put titles on our "breeding stock", did the health clearances like we were supposed to, but this is our first litter....the first "home grown" puppies we'll be adding to our string, and we're very excited (if you hadn't noticed already).

You worked hard for it ...and No couldn't tell that you were excited at all about this
whole Newpapers, Garbage bags, Infant kit nasal aspirator nail clippers and liquid medicine syringe...wally world has then for about 10 bucks
a stack of bar /auto towels come in real handy
I get one of the kitchen wire shelves and put the water and food on it so it is up and out of the way of the pups My walls on my whelp box are a bit lower to I have the shelf on the outside where the female can get to it easy and if anything spills it s out side of the whelp box
Pillows laptop phone note books pen clock and a kitchen scale with a large plastic container to weigh pups..bottles of water

Re: How many puppies???
Karen I understand your excitement. Was just kidding you a bit with my post. Think I may be beyond the real excitement of birth since it is something I grew up with practically everyday. I have found that I can tell about as much when a birth is near by watching the female. They will stop eating and you will notice a difference in the actions as she will be more nervous in practically every case. I never made a whelping box but in later years with the dogs I used a kids swimming pool. But with the dogs as well as all of the other animals I found it better to leave them alone, let them make their own nest, and let them take care of the babies without my interference unless it is needed. But when you averaged over a hundred such births a year my Dad taught us a lot about animal husbandry and what to look for as there was no way you could catch and take temperatures. Looking back over all of these years we never loss a mother trying to have a litter. I did have one Brit that labored for 24 hours so we did have to do a cesarean. And I had one Jersey that we had to pull the calf. I think you will find a much stronger bond between babies and Mom when she is left to take care of the birth plus she needs to eat the placenta instead of us grabbing the pup and cleaning it.
Arlette, none of this means I don't care or do not take as good of care because I let Mom take care of it till I am needed. It is just what I found worked over the years and I did try it your way too before I found that everything worked better when I kept out of it. Our toy terriers always whelped out in the barn and we were told to leave them alone for a couple of days till Dad cut their tails. Then the next day we could pick them up and hold them for a few minutes. Guess that is where I learned as it worked and we just didn't have problems. It even carried over to our kids as we never had a MRI but have to admit it caught up with us when the last pregnancy turned out to be two 7 pound boys. But I still can't think why we needed to know that before we did.
Have fun Karen, It will be exciting I am sure and I know the pups and mom will be well cared for.

If you have whole newspaper when he removes the bedding have him toss in a few sheets of newspaper it will give her something to dig and tear up plus will help absorb fluids

Re: How many puppies???
I'm STILL having a long night
Tess is fine, she's STILL in early labor (no pushing, no babies yet....just panting, digging, shaking. Just off the phone with her co-owner, who bred her last year....sounds like the same progression as last time.
Just off the phone with the vet who is not concerned but is on notice and available.
Ugh!

Re: How many puppies???
She seems to have stalled, and is trying to rest. We went from endless hours of panting, digging, shivering, vomitting (well, 3 times), to her being much more calm, and trying to rest.
Vet said not to worry unless she's pushing for hours without results but she hasn't reached that point yet.

Good heavens so cute AND big! How big was the heaviest one?? How's momma? was hard work for her, bet she's glad to be able to "rest." for at least 3 second.
Re: How many puppies???
The largest was 13.1 ounces, the 1st puppy to come of course, and currently nicknamed "Bottleneck". Tess is doing fine. She looks great and is being an excellent mommy.

I was the FIRST to post that I was correct! Plus, I had predicted they would be big pups, and 13.1 ounces is big for the breed.
