Foxdiggers Pups Out Of Razor?

[andy97 209]

shitty that for you pal but as said atleast the bitch is doing well now and the remaining pups are doing sound

cheers bird, its a strange one, she is in very good shape for her age and her system must be in good nick to drop 14 eggs and hold them, if there bodies wernt able to cope or was poorly they wouldnt produce that many apparently...... just a bloody pity she had problems with the one big pup, other than that the result may have been brighter who knows..... either way alls well that ends well,

yeh true I wonder if a caesarean could have helped at the time,? I know norm its only bull type breeds that they have that done waiting in the wings to do. I bred bull breeds and our bitch bullmastiff was ok , but vet would have done that if needed. But lurchers are norm a lot healthier type dogs , so they don't think it needs doing , just a thought for any other lads that breed lurchers and things might not be going right at the time

 

 

i had her penciled in to pup on a tuesday, she didnt have them untill the thursday. tuesday night we rang the vet to say she was ready to burst, i dunno if you saw the pic on the other thread but she could barley walk, asked the vet about a section on the bitch and asked if if would be a good idea with her age and amount of pups that it would be easier on her....... the reply was was that she might not have taken from the first day she was mated so ( she was mated 3 times over a week) leave her for a few days more and see what happens, if we have to do one we will but the mortality rate after sections is higher than natural births and she is fit and healthy so she should be fine on her own....... how wrong they were!!!!!

she wouldnt have been able to rear 14 anyway and i wouldnt have left 14 under her but its a sad turn of events that it happen the way it did, as is ever we live and we learn, and the ones that are left will be worth the trouble im sure!

Kinda Sussed something wasn't quite right when all went quiet, still glad your at the stage your at now, could've been a whole lot better but then at the other end of the scale, a whole lot worse atb with the 3 remaining pups........

[Tiny 7 1,694]

I did myself. But as the saying goes nose out.... said she'd have 14 but never ment with such terrible out come. Old bitch is alright that's the main thing and hope the remaining pup's flourish matey really do........ Atb

likes been said fd sad to hear has I know how much thought and time you put in to this lining hope the pups do the job for you

[fox digger 1,086]

Thanks folks, ill be honest i didnt know what sort of reaction i was going to get from posting this, i was ready for a string of abuse and hardship over only having 3 survivors from 14 and nearly loosing the bitch..... But its great to get these type of responses from genuine lads. I was full sure that THL firing squad were going to go to the bone!!

It is genuinely very nice to hear and much appriciated to read your positive comments and best wishes,

Cheers lads,

[South hams hunter 8,922]

If there was to be a firing squad they'd be wrong UN's mate, you've done your best by the bitch and pups but had a bad do
