The wait is getting nerve wracking!

C-section has brought me 7 girls and 1 boy. More details to follow because I am feeding the little squeelers now because Chloe is staying overnight at the vet for observation due to being anemic.

I went to work after our appointment today since nothing was happening. Came home to Chloe panting, shaking, and a questionable spot on the bed(so much for having husband watch her) No contractions were noticeable, so called the vet, he said give oxytocin. Nothing happened so in we went.

Got her on the table and open and these two HUGE puppies were at the Y fighting over who got to come out first. We don't think they would have ever come out. Got them all out, there were 8, so much for the money I spent on an x-ray, and worked to get them all going. Kind of scary situation, they just hung there limp. We got them all going and then Chloe had some complications. She was pretty anemic and her blood proteins were low. She just gave them everything she had. We tried giving her plasma, but it didn't bring it up enough so the vet thought she should go to the ER where she could be carefully monitored. I dropped her there and the puppies came home with me. I talked to them a few minutes ago and she was coming around, I can pick her up ~7:00. I will be much better once she is home.

Anyway, we have 7 girls and 1 boy. Its actually an awesome looking litter. We have 3 flashy fawn girls and 2 flashy brindle girls and 1 semi-flashy fawn girl and 1 white girl with an eye patch. The one boy is white with an eye patch. I'm not real sure what average weights are, but my smallest one is over 16 oz. They sure are hard to weigh wiggling like the do! Everybody ate, peed, burped, pooped and settled in. They are starting to stir again so I will feed again soon.

Oh, I am so excited for you!! So glad everything worked out even though Chloe had to have a c-section!.. I thought there were 11 pups? I guess you really don't know until they are born. When Chloe comes home you will then reintroduce her to her pups and hope she takes to them? Congratulations again!!

[ajford]

Chloe is home and the bar is open! She is starting to eat good and she's drinking and licking and they are too darn cute!

I'm going to try and get some sleep.

hurray for both of you. I cant wait to see pictures!! Im glad i dont breed cuz id never get rid of them...too cute to sell.

[sashamom]

Congratulations to you BOTH!! I have to agree with Shanz...i could never give them away...the thought of little puppies crawling all over me with that 'new' smell and puppy breath and too much skin for their little soft wrinkly bodies is enough to make me think i am in heaven early!!
Can't wait to see the pics!!

My pup was born completely white with not even one spot. To look at him now you'd never know it. The spots will come on later=)
