Happy Birthday


They are adorable.  Two little boys.  They are both around 4 ounces.

Where do I begin.  Water broke around 11.11pm. I was so excited.  Three hours later Snickie looked as if she had two sacks coming out.  And nothing much had happened.

I suspected she may be too small to pass them.  So I took her into the ER.  This ended up in a c-section and her being spayed.

These are my pets first, then my breeders.  Snickie's health and her welfare goes before my breeding her.  Also, she  belongs to my daughter.  So she is now fixed.

She is on meds and the sutures come out in 10 days.  Her nipples are inverted so it looks like I still may not get any sleep.  Most likely I will have to supplement.

I hope I am not rambling and make a little sense.  I am so tired from staying up the whole night and the worrying..... 

I just have to concerntrate my efforts on getting Snickie better, and keeping those pups healthy.

  1. Ususually it's not recommended to breed any more if she needed a C section... why was she needing one?

  2. It was 3 hours after her water broke and nothing much was happening. I decided to do it and feel it was the right decision. I didn't want to loose her or the pups. I figured that it was stuck in her canal.
