Ok, so here is what I did. I am reading Stephanie Lynn's blog awhile back about her possibly wanting another little doggie. And hearing her tale of her doggie it kinda makes me want one. So I go investigating breeds, looking up breeders, researching the breeds, looking on the internet for certain types of dogs. It was a toss up between a daschund, a min pin or a teacup poodle. I eventually settled on a female half min pin half daschund, perfect right. We adopted her from being put to sleep at the local animal shelter. I found her on pet finder.com by accident, and fell in love with her picture not knowing she was right here in my town and half n half of the two seperate breeds my husband and I were at odds about. I saw it as a sign that she was meant for me.
Turns out she is a wonderful, sweet, HOUSE TRAINED (thank the lord) most loveable dog I have ever seen.
And unbenounced to us at the time, she was/is pregnant.
Took her to the vet a few days after I got her to see about getting her fixed and he said wellll um uh Im not sure she is not pregnant right now, bring her back in 3 weeks and lets recheck her.
Ok, by the time we take her back in 3 weeks Ray Charles could tell she was obvioulsy preggers.
Not what we bargained for, but is what we got....SOOOOOOOOOOO
I have never had a dog that had puppies. Never been around a dog giving birth. I dont know what to do. Dont know if she will need help or if I let her do it on her own. I am so scared and nervous now every time she makes any noise I say OMG is she in labor?????????? Like a worried husband.
What to do what to do...Have you ever been around a birthing dog? Do they need help? How long does it take?
The vet did a sonogram on her last check up and it appeared she has 3 puppies in there.
Any words of advice would be appreciated!!!!!
Oh and a big ole P.S- she is due any minute now, any day...we are just waiting and watching. She pees alot like a big ole pregnant gal too, every hour on the hour. She makes it about 4 hours at night before she has to go out.
