As of today, just about a half hour ago, beautiful Rubi passed on to the Rainbow Bridge, due to complications from surgery. She leaves behind two beautiful pups that are a day old, and 3 pups from her other litter. She will be greatly, greatly missed! She was my first chi!

I am so sorry to hear this she is a Beautiful FurAngel waiting on the rainbow bridge.
I have heard of things going wrong when you do a C-section and spay at same time not sure why but have heard of a few passing away day(s) after the surgery. her body was weak and I am sorry for your loss and Will pray for her puppies to stay strong

I am so very sorry for your loss..
I, too, have known of friends who lost their chi babies after a C-section/spay combined surgery.. I will be praying for the babies as it is so hard to hand raise them from newborns.. Do you by chance know of someone with a chi mom with new babies? If so, it would be worth a try to see if another nursing mom might accept the little ones as hers.. Deb

Unfortunately I dont know anyone with a nursing mom anywhere near me, so I have been hand feeding the pups all day. Took a while for the girl to get the idea, but she's eatting now, the boy pigs out every time LOL. Thanks all, so many "what if's"...I know it was my fault she died, and that is something I have to live with.

I'm glad the puppies are eating!
I'm curious to know why you feel it is your fault she died, when you first posted you stated she had passed on due to complications.. do you care to share what happened?

I read your other post.. and I saw she had a C section and was spayed.. and she had two live pups.
I don't mean to be offensive I am just honestly curious.. what went so horribly wrong?

Poor pups, poor mama and poor you :(

My thoughts are with you guys right now
RIP Rubi!
As said above, please don't blame yourself. If you have that thought in your head, it will just be hard on you and right now, you don't need something like that to be floating around your brain...you have 2 puppies to care for.
