So what happened with this? I hope the OP had an emergency spay done, though something tells me that's extremely unlikely.

dont know the op hasnt been around since they started that thread. I seriously doubt he had her spayed.

Yea you have a forum about you starting a new breed so why wouldnt you know how to take care of a pregnant dog??? I think you should let her have her puppies, get them GOOD homes, spay your dog and forget trying to be a breeder!!! And stop telling people you are a breeder of the new dog breed Miniature Notts!!

I agree. I personally have no problem with people trying to start a new breed, but if you don't even know what to do with A pregnant dog you definantly shouldn't be breeding dogs at all, let alone trying to make a new breed!! If you are going to be a breeding you need to get educated. I'm sure your intentions are good, but please try to understand breeding shouldn't be something that is taken into until you know what you are doing!!! As for questions about dealing with the pregnancy, whatever your questions are I'd ask your vet.

First of all, you need to take your dog to the veterinarian so that the vet can check on her health and that of the puppies. Since she's already pregnant, the best thing to do would be to bone up on what pregnant dogs need. You need to go to the vet to see if he recommends a special diet or supplements. If so, make sure you do whatever the vet says. Second, I would begin looking into good homes for the puppies. Raising good puppies is hard work. You've got vaccinations, socializing, and other care. The mother needs to have regular checkups to assure the health of the pups.

Near birthing time, make sure she has a whelping box. You can find fancy ones, but a regular box with nesting materials also works. Make sure it's out of a place with foot traffic and quiet. She will probably begin panting or tearing/digging at the materials at the box when it's time to whelp. Make sure you're near, but don't interfere in the process unless something is wrong. You should have your vet's number handy in case there is difficulties with the birthing process. She will tear off the sac after the puppy is born and eat the afterbirth. Don't interfere too much!

Please spay or neuter you pet after she has had the puppies and when the vet says she's ready. We've got a big enough pet overpopulation problem as it is. If you can't find homes for the puppies, contact your local rescue organization or ASPCA. And please, please spay or neuter.

I'm sorry but something seems to be wrong with you

First of all, you tried to prove that you were a responsible breeder breeding mini whatevers.

Now your dog is prego and you have no idea what to do?

Sounds very bi polar if not fishy

Um, what is your question about? I am sorry but I do not belive you are a vet and are of that age. Nobody of that age, even my age would ask a question and not even state the question.

I second spaying your female dog. If you don't know what to do when she is pregnant, you most likely should not be breeding.

Most definatally, you can even get her spayed now if she's early along and prevent the litter from happening. It may sound harsh, but if something goes wrong and you don't know what to do you may end up with a dead momma, better to go on the safe side if you ask me.

first you need a warm draft free spot for her to have them, a box or plastic swimming pool would be good line it with newspaper for now afterwards you can put a large towel in there and clean newspaper . do not pile the bedding because a pup can stuck under it and suffacate the mom should do most of the work but I would call your vet and let them know what is happaning they should be able to talk you through it or even make a house call she will need to go to the vets after giving birth to make sure she delivered all the pups. my vet likes to give a shot of oxytocin to clean out the uterus and a shot of antibiotics to prevent any infections. of course I havnt had puppies in years so things might of changed just ask your vet what his protocals are. oh and I would get your female spayed. unless she is a show or working dog that can improve her breeds genes. their are enough pups in shelters looking for a home!
