Nina had a 2nd baby today! (cute pictures alert)

Many years ago, I adopted very sweet, beautiful, Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix that was, unknown to me, pregnant. She gave birth to one, solitary, white puppy. I don't know if dogs are like cats in that aspect, but small litters do happen. It's good your taking her to the vet's office, just in case.

but small litters do happen.

True - but being that they were born so far apart, to me is reason for concern and should be checked just in case she has more.

When my RB Lhasa had pups many years ago, she didn't pass all the afterbirth. It poisoned her system and she passed this infection on to the pups thru her milk, and 3 of the 6 pups died in the first 2 days after their birth. I rushed her and the remaining pups to the vet and that's when I found out what was going on, and Momma had an emergency hysterectomy. If she hadn't, she and the rest of the pups would have died from the infection. Not passing a pup or kitten, would have the same outcome.

BTW - Momma dog lived to the ripe old age of 16!

What a beatiful fur family!

Nina's babies are so precious and she is such a wonderful mommy. So very proud and loving.
