__crazy_canine__ Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 A new doggie was rescued, pregnant, just a few days ago. Last night, she had 7 pups. One was stillborn and one died after birth. So RIP little pups.

__crazy_canine__ Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 OMG extremely bad news... All the pups have passed now. :cry: RIP little puppies. [quote]All 7 pups were doomed before birth As the last one of the seven pups barely clung to life this morning, Tina and I rushed both Mother Spice and her last baby to Dr. Cornelius's clinic at 7:45. When we got there the parking lot was already full of cars and the office was full of dogs with their guardians. I told the receptionist/tech that we thought the baby might already be dead, and she took us in almost immediately. The doctor took one look at the dead puppy and said, "His mouth is yellow. Probably hooks. Bring the mother in here for a fecal." Spice allowed the doctor to take a sample, and afterwards Tina and I waited out in the waiting room with Spice, who was very well behaved around all the other strange dogs. After about 10 minutes Dr. Cornelius came into the waiting room and told us that Spice has both hookworms and coccidia, both of which parasites go through the walls of the placenta and infest the babies. All pregnant dogs need to be wormed halfway through their pregnancy. The combination of these two parasites brought the puppies' chances of surviving down to zero. "They were doomed," said Dr. Cornelius. "There was nothing anyone could have done to save them." We are all very saddened by the loss of Spice's children. We took probably over 100 photos since the first pup was born, but we are having technical difficulties with our photo processing program, so there won't be any photos today. Poor Mother Spice looked all over for her pups in her hospital kennel after we got back home from the vet, and she is receiving lots of attention from each of us as we pass by her kennel. Now she's sleeping peacefully after this long, long ordeal. [/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabine Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: This is so sad.......... R.I.P.. little angels :angel: I feel so sorry for Spice to have lost all her pups - maybe she gets to nurse some orphaned puppies to take away some of her pain and to give some other little lives a chance............

__crazy_canine__ Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 Well, Im not sure... I dont think theyre able to take in anymore dogs thats for sure, but maybe they could let another rescue with abandoned pups take her in? What do you all think, would that work?
