Puppies Have Arrived...

Whew! What a night! Unfortunately, this was not a very successful litter, only the first 3 puppies delivered survived. The 4th was not breathing properly so we rushed him to the vet, who took an x-ray that showed a deformed airway, and he died shortly after that. The next 3 were all stillborn, and despite the vets best efforts we were not able to revive them.

BUT, Starr is doing good, and we have 2 girls and a boy, who are also doing good and eating well.... Here are some pictures taken this morning, they are just a few hours old.

Sorry to hear about the 4 pups. But, I'm glad three made it and that they and Starr are doing well.

Will you be keeping one or are all the pups going to another home?

I will be co-owning one of the girls with my Father, who also breeds/shows Goldens.

Beautiful momma and babies. I, too, am sorry to hear that the majority of the puppies didn't survive. But, Starr will be able to give all of her attention and love to those three that did! Welcome to the world, little ones!

I am sure I will take plenty of heat for saying this, but, I haven't ever heard of a situation where greater than 50% of the litter didn't survive. Of course, I am sad for the pups that didn't make it, and, in fact, sad that this dog was bred at all. The last thing we need is more dogs. To know that so many didn't survive makes me wonder about the bitch, and her birthing ability.

I know you receive some sort of 'protection' from PT for breeding dogs. Somehow, you rise above the ranks, and maybe some people are afraid to say anything. I don't know why that is, but, I want to remain consistent in my stance- no more homeless pets. Breeding, for whatever reason, means more dogs in the world, more homeless dogs, etc.

While puppies and kittens are adorable, and I think these surviving ones are no exception, I don't think it is right that you breed. For whatever reason. No matter what bloodline you are advancing.

I refuse to glorify intentional breeding. Yours included. :( :( :( :(
