Re: The Journey Of A First Time Litter

I read this thread from start to finish as few days ago and would like to say it was very informative and a cracking read. Really helpful to put your mind at ease when going through your first litter.

Re: The Journey Of A First Time Litter

glad you have all enjoyed it.

The pups are now all 3 months old and i have had reports back from owners that all their vets think they are the healthest pups in the breed they have seen which makes me VERY proud.

all are healthy and jumping around growing well without any issues

OUR deaf boy ROllo has learnt sit and lay down and NO by signing.

I even had one vet ask me if i had any pups left as he would love one of my pups WHICH has reinforced the I WILL DO IT AGAIN. Jus have to keep an eye out for a new bitch WITH all paperwork and everythign in toe.

i have 4 years of education ahead of me thn i want to give myself a ear to settle into a new job so 5 years before i have another litter 2 years to find myself a new girl! i may even go so far as getting myself a breeding pair we will see.

xx

Re: The Journey Of A First Time Litter

Sorry this is not part of this particular subject, just a curious question really!

Is aspirating always necessary?

Please reply someone ASAP

Re: The Journey Of A First Time Litter

I find yes. The mums do not always get all the fluid out and pup inhales fluid causing pneumonia. Much better to do it yourself then give to mum to clean up.

Hi Candysmum

Pleased to read that all is well with the pups And that you plan to put some research into getting a bitch suitable for breeding.

But can I just make a comment about the bit of your post that I've put in red. I would strongly try to persuade you not to get a "breeding pair". This is not the best way to go about dog breeding. Your own dog is extremely unlikely to be the best possible match for your own bitch. And there is no point in doing repeat matings just for the sake of it. It doesn't make a useful contribution to the gene pool. I'm sorry to say that it is usually puppy farmers who consistently use their own dogs for matings.
