Please take Angel to a vets now!
Most vets will see an animal in distress regardless of financial restraints.....

now sorry but...when you get Angel and you through this,please you have got to know that,that little girl depends on you to love her and protect her,and make sure her health is always looked after...and i am sorry but if that meant i had to go without so my babies could get that care then go without i would!

I do hope Angel is okay...i will be thinking of her,

[Little_Angel]

Will y'all PLEASE go back and read what y'all posted, how'd you like it if you were in my place?

No one was "getting all up on your case". They were only trying to help and educate you on the health risks Angel might experience.

Regardless of age, finical problems aren't the issue here. I know my local Humane Society and ASPCA spay/neuter for free if someone cannot afford the surgery for their dog. No one was trying to be rude we were just trying to educate you. Even if these puppies do make it, they will be adding to the unwanted pet population. What kind of dog is Angel? I hope she isn't a mutt.

Good luck to Angel and you! Keep us posted.

*sigh* I sure hope you can get her spayed asap. good luck and let us know how she is doing!

IMHO, age is never a valid factor. I was 7 when I convinced my mother to neuter my dog. She wanted to breed him and sell the puppies for money. For what it's worth, I'm only a year older than you. I don't like giving out my age, but I feel that the age factor is a rather limp excuse.

But.. I digress. There are two suggestions that I see being repeated over and over again: 1) at the very least, call your vet 2) spay her ASAP. That is all that we ask of you.

Also, where do you live? If you can give a general location, I'm sure we can help you find lower-priced/affordable veterinary services. It was also mentioned that some vets offer payment plans. Please search every route you possibly can to ensure the health of your pregnant puppy and her puppies as well.

Okay, I promise this is my last thought, but could it be possible that your puppy is having a false pregnancy?

[Little_Angel]

no, she is not. she is having morning sickness and all the signs of pregnancy! she is HUGE! i call her my "pretty pregnant puppy" and my "big bellied baby" LOL!

Lou Lou is 11 months old and is having a false pregnancy and is even producing milk. The way my vet explained it, is that they can have all the signs, it only cost me $22 to find that out and it was a big relief to me to not have to worry. I hope that if she is going to have puppies, everything goes smoothly! Good luck to you and Angel!

When a dog has a false pregnancy, they go through EVERYTHING that a valid pregnant dog would go through. Even the mental and physical attributes of pregnancy. Their bellies get bigger, they produce milk, start nesting, etc. Some even carry through and have false labors when they are never really pregnant in the first place. If she is having a false pregnancy, you really need to take her to the vet to have it properly looked at. Please. Unless you have taken her to a vet and the vet takes an ultrasound and verifies she is pregnant, there is ALWAys a chance of it being a false pregnancy

[Karen]

Take her to the vet! Take her to the vet! For many reasons, take her to the vet!

STOP asking for our help if you will not act upon it.
Your dog needs to see a VET.

V-E-T-E-R-I-N-A-R-I-A-N.

[coco-bean]

Any news on Angel? did you take her to the vet? is everything okay with her??

[My Peanuts]

I'm sorry that this is happening and that you are too young to do anything about it. I will say this; your parents are the most irresponsible pet owners I've heard of in a while. They have no business having ANY animals if they can't even afford to buy a new diaper for the dog. I know you're young and that you are on this board seeking help. Good for you, you can break this chain of HORRIBLE animal care when you grow up.

Your dog needs to go to the vet. The puppies and the mother will most likely die. I know that your family doesn't have the money. I suggest spending time with your dog. Without vet care theses are probably her last days. Also, please do not ask for another dog until your parents are prepared to care for it properly.

I'm sorry if this is blunt, but these are not little toys, these are living animals with feelings and you should know this. Again, I know this is not your fault, but it is your parents fault.
