Hugs everyone !!
Well, since I my post earlier yesterday a lot has happened !! After deliverig 4 puppies very quickly (2 & half hours) she stopped and yet we could feel another one inside of her. So, a very long story made short, we went to an Emergerncy clinic and had exrays and sure enough there was a larger puppy wedged under her ribs. Then we went to my Vet's Office and he did an emergency C-section immediately, reducing the risk of losing both Mommy & baby girl #3. Jack (my DH) had to stay home with my Mom so I could go with our Doggies. I got home around 6:15 AM. We have all slept from 2:30 this afternoon until around 6:00PM. God was surely with us all last night. It really scares me to think that if we had not had a Vet Tech with us maybe we would have "assumed" she was finished birthing her puppies and gone to bed, possibly losing them both. My Mommy dog, Precious, has been in a lot of pain from her surgery, but nothing has slowed her down from being a great mother to her babies. She doesn't mind company either....we've had family and friends up until 2:30 and then again after 6:00 PM !!. By 2:30 we all really needed a 3 hour nap, LOL!! We are all rested and happy now, some of us more than others, LOL!! Precious is very tired, Margo & DH are wayyy beyond tired but so thankful for caring people:))
God bless you all, Love, Margo
