Even the experienced can have problems
Many of you may rember me, and my plans to breed Vixie with Dodger.
and my many posts fo the dangers of breeding ect...
Well i wanted to support myself after all this time.
Even the most experienced breeders, even the most intensive reaserch can sometimes fall on a blind eye.
I did my reaserch, ive been breeding for years and i found 2 perfect dogs, both from free whelping lines, beautiful form and 100% A+ health...
Well vixies whent into labour, but her puppies hadnt descended into the birth canal, the result? A c-section!
Yes folks, even with all the work and reaserch my poor vixie had to go under the knife.
Had i not known the sighns to look for she and the puppies could have been lost. Luckily both she and her litter of 4 are doing wonderfully and she has recovered fully.
Due to the fact that we cannot tell if there is a genetic or medical reason for the undescended puppies I, with the support of a breeding experienced vet, decided safer to spay her during the c-section.
I will not risk my babies life unnessicarily...
Perhaps this means nothing to you...
But I hope somewhere out there someone rethinks the desicion to breed without reaserch...
If even the experienced can lose their babies, do you want to put yours at risk?
do i plan on breeding again?
Yes, just not from this bloodline. All her babies are going home on a spay/neuter contract...its just not worth risking it to me.
PLEASE even if youve done your reaserch, be prepared for the worst!
