JUST A THOUGHT - Page 1

I HAVE A LITTER OF PUPS AT THE MOMENT WHICH WE REAR IN THE HOUSE UNTIL THEY ARE 5 WEEKS OLD THEN TRANSFERED OUT TO THE KENNELS.  THE BITCH HAD LEFT THE PUPS AND CAME INTO US  I WENT TO CHECK THE PUPS WHO WERE AT THIS TIME 2 WEEKS OLD AND FOUND ONE STRUGGLING TO BREATHE IT HAD SOME OF THE BITCHES HAIR STUCK IN ITS MOUTH AND HAD OBVIOUSLY INGESTED SOME WE ACTED IMMEDIATLY AND TURNED THE PUP UPSIDE DOWN AND GAVE IT SOME PHYSIO IT CAME ROUND BUT WAS SLIGHTLY DAZZED BY WHAT WE HAD DONE TO IT  BUT WOULD NOT EAT. A TRIP TO THE VET CONFIRMED THAT ITS LUNGS WERE OK AND SUGESTED WE HAND FED IT BUT IT REFUSED I FELT THAT MAYBE IT STILL HAD SOME HAIR IN ITS TUMMY I GAVE IT SOME YOUGHART WHICH MADE IT SICK AND SURE ENOUGH A SMALL BIT OF HAIR  CAME UP WE REINTRODUCED A NOW SHAVED BITCH TO IT AND IT HAS NEVER LOOKED BACK. I WAS THINKING THAT MAYBE  THIS COULD BE THE CAUSE OF SOME PUPS DYING WITHOUT REASON IN LITTERS AS IF I HAD BEEN A SPIT SECOND LATER THE PUP WOULD HAVE DIED
