I wonder, have you had the VetGen vWD test done on your bitch?

How about testing for thyroid function? Cataracts?

I'd like to apoligize for all of the rude irigent people on Pet Talk

No need to apologize for me, thank you. My replies are neither rude nor ignorant.

Rude and ignorant (I'm assuming that's what you meant) is random breeding of mutts while there are dogs in shelters.

[Alysser]

Im sorry but I think most of you people on here with the attitudes are pathetic!!! It's her dog and if she wants to breed her thats her buisness! my parents have breed our dog and the last littler i posted on here and I got nothing but mean and hurtfull comments and the puppy she had was a still born! But when someone comes on here and asks for advice and they get nothing but attitude that is perty sad and pathetic!

and as for advice I go to dctor william trusdale and he recomended givin my dog little bits rasberry leaf tea mixed in with her food just the leaf's though and if shes in labor and nothing happens within 24 hours i'd get her to the vet o and Uhm I would get a whelping box towels and a heating pad. and if she has a hard time produceing milk doctor trusdale recomended yogurt for her well I hope I was some help. and I'd like to apoligize for all of the rude irigent people on Pet Talk good luck with your pups! hope you keep us updated and share picures!

Justin and the loved pets.

First of all, if she posts this on a public forum and asks for opinions, that is exactly what she is going to get! Just because she doesn't like them, she is rude back. Is this our fault? NO! Secondly, don't apologize for me thanks. I am capable of doing that myself if I feel it is necessary and in this case it isn't.

You obviously used the wrong words when you said rude and ignorant. We're only rude to people who are rude to us, which she was. Ignorance is what you and her both have. You can't see OUR POINT! I am SORRY if I care about the unwanted dog population and millions upon millions of dogs being put to sleep each year in shelters because of people who have no right to be breeding dogs. This posts really makes me judge your love for dogs. When uneducated people breed dogs, they forget they take away homes for the dogs in shelters and can care less about the poor critters dying.

I love how people call us all ignorant yet they can't see our point and completely ignore what is trying to be said.

[inlovewithanimals]

I wasnt talking about anyoine specific but now you are being!!

[inlovewithanimals]

Ok you eally have some nearve to judge people like that!!! I thought PT was to help people which apparetly you arnt doing!!!And I love my dogs jsut like you love your just because people breed theire dogs doesnt meen we dont love them ok so thanks but no thanks for the attitude!!!

[Alysser]

Ok you eally have some nearve to judge people like that!!!

If you didn't realize it, you were just judging me before by calling me and all the other PT'ers rude and ignorant. That being said, I NEVER said people who breed dogs don't love them, I said if you don't care about the animal population then you don't. I also said it makes me judge your love for dogs, I never definitely said you didn't.

The thing is before you get help in the forums you MUST swallow all the insults and bad treatment that they give you. Then they might realize that whats done is done and maybe at least try to help.

I dont need to be here to be treated like garbage. Because i have more people in other forums that instead of trash talk to me they HELP me.

I dont care what you got to say on here. I dont care about your opinion all i wanted was an answer.

[sasvermont]

I hope someone closes this thread soon. It is pointless now. I am going to add some names to my ignore list, and get it over with fast. I had a feeling this would end up getting ugly.

Ugh.

Again, I hope this pup does just fine and there is a happy ending...... we will never really know.

I am moving on....never to open this thread again..... Ugh X 1,000.

[ScottieMommy]

Yeah PLEASE i beg someone close this. An update will be give at week 6 on the 19th of September if you all want to know.

[mr.chiwawa]

You opened the door on it. Why don't you do something wise and close it yourself. As for me being rude and stating my opinions it is kinda a given when comming onto something like this. There are bound to be things people belive that you don't. However that doesn't give you the right to be rude back. I am pretty sure that if you just took it with a grain of salt this thread wouldn't have gotten so nasty so quick. I wish you the best of luck for the dog's sake however that doesn't mean I condone what is being done. I won't say I'm sorry for I don't have any reason to be. And if you stoped being so bullheaded you would have seen as I did many people did offer you good sound advice. Why you choose to overlook it I don't know. And maybe just maybe it would be wise not to update the entire board who in a majority doesn't agree with you but to instead PM those who are intrested. Again best of luck to you

I think you have gotten answers, you just choose to ignore them.

I am not sure what help you are looking for anyways?? people have told you the best ways to care for your dog, while pregnant. what more do you need??

I your first post, you asked what we thought in reguards to your dog possibly being prgnant- we cannot tell from pics, you need to get an ultra sound, simple.

In your second post, you asked if you were feding her too much- you need to feed your dog a proper diet, which does not include people food. this is in no way good for any dog, let alone a pregnant one.

You also raised concerns reguarding her vomiting and Diarhea- This could be caused by the change in food, the added human food, or many numerous things. If she is still vommiting and having diarhea i would take her to the vets to get checked out.

as far as I can tell, all your questions thus far has been answered. Not sure what else you are looking for?

as far as peole asking questions, while you are looking for answers, well sometimes we need more info to give you the correct answers.

is there anything I have missed??

(Taken for palpation to the vet on day 25, felt two little things) Waiting for days 50-55 for x rays)

(Let me tell you something i ALWAYS post in threads. I had a 6 year old Dalmatian who got pregnant without me even knowing, i was not caring for her i was away. No one ever told me she mated. I NEVER took her to the vet because she was not acting strange, she was mellow like always and did not show any signs, was not time for a yearly check up or shots. I believe 63 days later she had the first puppy in my bed and went all the way to 7! Sadly two where born dead the rest where happy and healthy. She had them without any special care through the pregnancy because i did NOT know she was expecting)

You also raised concerns reguarding her vomiting and Diarhea- This could be caused by the change in food, the added human food, or many numerous things. If she is still vommiting and having diarhea i would take her to the vets to get checked out.

(Did you NOT read what i posted yesterday? I took her to the vet at 5)


Yes but i came here looking for other opinions. Something like
"Well i dont know if your dog looks pregnant for sure" OR
"I believe you need to wait a little longer" NOT
"OMG you are so cruel to your dog abort them and get her spayed" OR
"You are such a cruel person how could you?"

HOW can anyone be in the forums if this is what they get!

well how do those answers you described, help you?? If that is all you are looking for than you came to the wrong place!! Sounds like you just wanted to "Show off" your pregnant dog, more than anything!

and once again, we are all entitled to our own opinions!

[ScottieMommy]

I know you all complain about me and all, i know this was a HUGE mistake. But before you go off at me read this post i added in my other forum please.

And no i was NOT showing anything off to anyone.
__________________________________________________ _______________

I read a website for Wizzard and Claws i believe it was, they get their "stock" as they like to call it from puppymills so they changed their name because lots of owners where complaining that puppies where dying. They sold them for over $1000 and up to $5000!!!! When they where on "sale" they went for $600 or so. Anyways i saw the order form puppymills gave this place. Some read like this

Maltese Puppies 2 for $500
Shih Tzu Puppies $250 each buy 2 get third FREE!
Dalmatian $300 each get second half price!!

Can you actually believe this? By the way then the Maltese was sold for $2500 or more. And the order form was exacly like ordering a book or so. You checked off how many you wanted and what breeds.

But in their new website they say they are a reputable breeder and every dog is loved and cared for. Thats a BIG lie they dont even own their parents. They also show pictures of celebrities of who bought puppies there and are very happy with them and also of costumers. I am sure the celeb photos are fake and the rest are as well. They have to keep changing their name because more people are complaining. Is an online pet store too!

Many of us are aware that puppy mills and agents exist. It is a horrible thing, and if the owner of a puppy mill or an agent posted on here they would probably meet with a lot of opposition. I am not sure what the purpose of your above post is other than to make us aware of the practice. It doesn't change anything.

(Let me tell you something i ALWAYS post in threads. I had a 6 year old Dalmatian who got pregnant without me even knowing, i was not caring for her i was away. No one ever told me she mated.

It is hard to tell when you are quoting someone and when you are "speaking" for yourself. Since I do not see this mentioned anywhere else in this thread I assume it is you that is stating this. So this isn't the first time that you had an unspayed female become pregnant by "accident." What happened to the five surviving puppies, did you keep them? Are you financially prepared to care for five puppies as they grow into dogs if that happens again?
