scutt Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Just one point don't over feed her or the pups could get to big for her to deliver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1087 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 How old is your bitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 vitamins wise I had mine on pet tabs for the duration of her pregnancy, then panacur at a low dose for I think it was 20 days pre whelping. Its not rocket science but just feed as usual then slightly more as they demand. Don't go for calcium supplements late on and just focus on a decent quality food Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayfly36 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 I came home this evening for a huge surprise, by bitch whoom i thought was only 4 to 5 weeks pregnant gave birth to a pup in the box. Mad rush to get things sorted, I think she is finished, its been 2 hours since the last pup, but it feels like she has another inside, 4 Total so far, 2 dogs 2 bitches, 3 black and white 1 liver and white, and 1 still birth. One off the black and white is white all over except for his black head, pics and video clip to follow tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
