My friend has 4 female Chi`s. The eldest has had one litter. And my friend had a little boy Chi staying for a few days, as a favour to her friend who was away on holiday. Anyway the other night she heard a noise. She and her husband ran downstairs and her eldest Chi had given birth to a little black puppy....then came a white one,then two very very tiny/delicate pups...a cream then a Merl...all female. She has to put the two tinys onto the mums nipple are there so weak. She thought she had watched the dogs closely so that nothing like this happened. She obviously didnt watch close enough! I rang her today expecting her to say the two tinys had gone. But there still alive and are a week old now. I really hope that all of them survive and do well.

I do hope they survive, Penny had a still born westie pup 2 months after we got her from rescue,and Fynn was only one and 1/2 ounces when born. Her siblings were mummified and she wouldnt suckle,my breeder hand fed her for a few days and then was so tired left her overnight with the mummy thinking she might not survive,but came down in the morning to find her suckling,she made it and is nearly 5 years old now and weighs 3 and 1/2lbs.

I'll keep good thoughts for the babies.

Your friend didn't know her dog was pregnant? How is that possible? :?

I was wondering the same thing, Rachael. Especially if she had a litter of pups before.

Hope the babies continue to thrive. Would love to see some pics - hint, hint. :wink:

I dont think she noticed the pregnancy because the dog is a little on the chubby side and hadnt even thought of her being pregnant etc.
Thanx for your kinds thoughts. I`ll keep you updated.

Hi all.... well heres an update on my friends 4 female puppies. The cream and the white one have just been homed together, to a lovely couple! The all black one is going to be homed with my friends sister....and against all odds the very very tiny grey and white female has survived! My friend is keeping her. She was in fact the first to open her eyes... and would take no messing from the others...shes a feisty little madam lol! I really think that my friends devotion to them all pulled the 2 small ones through. Especially the grey and white one.
Isnt it nice to hear a happy ending!
