Well, they let it happen again. They let Chloie get pregnant.
She had 7 puppies this time, all of them were stillborn except for 1.
One of them wasn't even formed right. It's head looked deformed.
My friend called this morning to let me know Chloie had puppies, and the one remaining puppy that was alive had a huge gash on the back of her neck. I guess Chloie got a little over excited cleaning her and ripped her skin open. It was from one side of her neck to the other.
I couldn't very well stand by and let this puppy die (because that's basically all her mom was going to do), so I took her to the vet. She has 7 staples in her neck and I was given some anti-biotics for her. The vet put some anti-biotic stuff underneath her skin before they stapled her up. I have to bring her back in 10 days to have them removed.
Anyway, needless to say.. The puppy is now here with us and we are bottle feeding her. My friend was going to take her to her house and bottle feed it but she has a 3 year old son that wouldn't leave it alone, and she also has a 6 month old baby that is just learning to crawl so she didn't really have time.
I really don't understand why her mom doesn't just go and get the poor thing fixed. She's like 9 years old and her milk is bad. She can't nurse them. They know this from the past litters she has had. It just pisses me off to no end.
For now, this is the only pic I have.

I feel sick to my stomach. That's horrible. Poor Chloie Poor puppy. Stillborn and deformed puppies, bad milk? I know she's your friend, but, pleeeze...bop her on the head or something! And you and your boyfriend are already caring for the poor little thing, you're so awesome to get involved. Puppy stitches, poor little dear. 

Her mom sounds like my ex-FIL. He totally ignored the obvious problems their female dog was having giving birth because "he didn't want the dog in the first place". She & most of her pups died giving birth. I can't imagine how much pain that poor dog must have been in. My ex and his mom ended up hand-feeding the orphaned pups.
