Pregnant Doggy

[kitty]

I have a lovely springer spaniel who i am now hoping is pregnant.

I was just wandering what other orgers have experienced with their pregnant doggies, changes in appetitie, them not being themselves, that sort of thing.

[carzanne]

i remember when our dog was pregnant she began making little beds everywhere and went really thin at her back end, plus went realy motherly towards soft toys taking them to her bed and carring them around lik a puppy

[kitty]

I can't wait for her to be like that. I'm already planning everything because i know it won't be that long to wait if she is. :D

hey u should feed ur dog puppy food cos it has the right ingredants for ur dog when pregant

[cazmanian_minx]

Oh crumbs, I wish I hadn't clicked on this thread - I've *always* wanted a Springer!

(OH and I have said no dog until our very ancient cat is no longer with us, as it wouldn't be fair on her to introduce a puppy at her time of life)

Hi, yeah i read that i am meant to feed her premium puppy food. What is classed as premium puppy food?? Does anyone know??

I'm not going to help. lol. I ended up with her by mistake and would never part with her now. They're such a loving breed and so friendly. Brilliant with my son as well.

She's a lovely looking dog - glad she's in such a good home :D

Thank you. If i had the space and the time i would do. I'm such a softie when it comes to my animals.

[neepnipper]

Premium puppy food are makes such as Hills, James Wellbeloved, Wainwrights etc, if you pop in to Pets at Home they'll advise you on what the premium brands are.

It is good to pamper pets! They are excellent companions!

My cat is male, he likes to take wee kittens or puppies and treat them like his own! Teach them the ropes etc etc! Its lovely!

Hope all goes well! :)

Thanks shelley, as i've said i'm just hoping that she is pregnant. I always pamper my pets, i can't help it, especially her. I've got another dog that is like your cat, he is so soft and good mannered with any animal i decide to bring into the house, i know that when/if she does have puppies that as soon as they are old enough he will just lie there and let them all run around him and play. I can't wait :D

[lisbit]

She is a lovely springer. We have two and treasure them although you dont need to be houseproud as they really like to bring outdoors in lol!

I got my lovley little girl by mistake, took her to look after for a weekend that turned into a couple of weeks, then a month and then i wouldn't let her go.

When i take her walks we go up a country path, when we are on our way home she runs the entire time in the ditch and comes out black, but she loves it.

You can have mine; he has practically broken my finger with being in such a hurry to get to the beach! Had him tied to a railing in town and when I went to release him he took off like a rocket! Unfortunately, my finger was on the other side of the railing holding his lead.....[disgust].....but I love him really!

And I have such an important date on Sunday too so I hope I can handle a knife and fork by then! :lol:

Well fingers crossed she is pregnant then! :) Puppies are so fun to watch! Watching them grow and learn by mistakes!! Just like babies i suppose...you fall over...you get back up with more will power!

Keep us posted! I will be watching this thread for more info! ;)

"When i take her walks we go up a country path, when we are on our way home she runs the entire time in the ditch and comes out black, but she loves it".

Yep, that's what spaniels are good at! ;)

I seriously can't wait, i let my cat have a couple of litters of kittens and when they were around you didn't need telly or anything else, i just watched them playing the whole time.

Don't worry i will keep you all posted as soon as i can see any evidence of pregnancy there will be more pics of her and then when/if the little bundles of fun and mischief arrive there should probably be an entire section just for pictures of the puppies. lol.

They just seem to love it so much. It's great to watch, not so great though once they reach the house :lol:

hi there, many congratulations on your impending pregnancy!
our cocker had 5 puppies in september and thankfully everything went exceedingly smoothly.
we read everything and googled everywhere. (http://www.tangtini.co.uk/Pregnancy%20Calendar.html) gives a cockers blow by blow account for their pregnancies,

we also got a brilliant book from amazon (The Whelping and Rearing of Puppies: A Complete and Practical Guide)

also you tube is brilliant for watching dog labour if this is your first time

Thanks for that lynne, i shall have a look at that web site :D:D

[kitty]

Hey Shelley

Not as yet we haven't but still really hopeful, tbh i can't see why she wouldn't be, don't like to count my puppies before they are born though, lol :lol:

[buggyracer]

a pal of mines jack russell, due in 12 days :D

poor little sod, shes fatter now :roll:

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d108/buggyracer/terriers/IMG_6429.jpg

[kitty]

It can't be easy on them buggyracer, especially the smaller animals, i always thought that if the dog was smaller then they prob wouldn't have as many in a litter but i've now realised that isn't true, a typical springer has between 5 and 8 :eek:

[kitty kat]

my jack russell had 6 and they all came out happy and healthy but 6 i couldnt believe it :eek:

[froal]

Hi all,
On your spaniel bitch you can get her scanned at 30 days, i would recommend it for her first time, we get all our 1st time bitches done..
Its just not for making sure she's in pup but it should tell if there's hearts beats but it won't show you how many as they like to hide ! :)

We've had a few litters now and all got great homes with lots of feed back from our owners ! :)

Well good luck !

Zoe - Froal Whippets

[kitty]

Just a wee update..................... Still no sure for definate but my wee baby is def seeming a wee bit tubbier.

I know it could still be a phantom pregnancy but have a good feeling that we will have puppies by 24 Feb. (i really hope so anyway)

I will keep you all posted and there will be pics if and when they arrive

[kitty kat]

bet your getting excited now

puppies [lol]

[kitty]

I am, its ridiculous i know but i can't help myself :lol:

[kitty]

Thought i'd add another photo to show you all how big she is now getting, should have pups in about 3 weeks :D:D

What a lovely choochy face....she will be a great little mum. :)

Thats her 'mum i don't know whats happening to me' face.

Thanks teenybash, i think she'll be a brilliant mum to :D

[Sarah]

She's beautiful :) do you have homes for all the pups?

[kitty]

She's beautiful :) do you have homes for all the pups?

Thanks Sarah, not yet i don't, i've got a home for one so far, we'll just have to wait and see how many she has, hopefully it won't be to difficult though

[Liz]

She is lovely bless her.:D

Hope all goes well and you soon hear the patter of tiny paws.

[Sarah]

Thanks Sarah, not yet i don't, i've got a home for one so far, we'll just have to wait and see how many she has, hopefully it won't be to difficult though

Do you not have a waiting list? Why breed her when you aren't sure of homes for all the puppies? Especially when so many dogs are being given up right now.

[Liz]

Do you not have a waiting list? Why breed her when you aren't sure of homes for all the puppies? Especially when so many dogs are being given up right now.

Sorry Kitty but I do agree with Sarah.

What if you don't get homes for all the puppies?

[kitty]

Thats ok. I do have other people interested but didn't want to tell people they were definately getting a puppy until i know how many she has, the one that has definately gone is going to the owner of the stud dog and i have at least 3 other people interested ready for when they are born.

I have looked into everything carefully before i decided to let her have puppies and made sure that there is definately a want for her puppies, and i will of course keep any puppies until they do find good loving homes. She is a very small spaniel and will be very surprised if she has more than 5, and there is still ther very real chance that i will keep one myself as i doubt i will be able to resist once they are born.

I am also only letting her have one litter and as soon as the puppies are weaned little misty will be off to the vets to get spayed. :D

[Liz]

Thanks for the explanation Kitty.

I wasn't having a 'go at you' but, unlike yourself, there are too many irresponsible people who let their dogs(or should I say bitches)have puppies with no thought of the consequences.

Looking forward to photos of the puppies.I am getting my 'aaaaawwwwws' all ready!!!lol

I completely agree with you Liz, there are far too many people that over breed their dogs without any thought to what will happen to the puppies or to the poor dog if they have too many puppies. :D

[froal]

Hi Emma,

She looks huge now eh !
I think some people jump the gun a little and i think you'll have no problems in gettting good homes for your puppies as springers are VERY
Popular and make great workers / pets, there is a lady who goes to Caithness Canine Club Dog Agility with her's and does really well with them and they compete regularly ! :D

Keep us updated and Good luck !

[kitty]

Thanks Zoe, i don't rekon i should have too much bother either, just can't wait now.

I would like a shot of your big dog bed though if you don't mind, it'll do her til the pups can start getting out and about :D

[froal]

No problem i'll get it too you soon ok ! :D

[Sarah]

Thanks for explaining that. I wasn't meaning to have a go either, I just hate the fact that so many dogs are being PTS each day, when they could be finding homes. I'm glad to hear she will be off to be spayed as soon as its possible. I hope the pups birth goes well, please keep us updated and share pics if you can :)

[kitty]

Another update for you all, as you can see she's put on a fair bit of weight now and my poor baby is soo tired. Puppies are due on tuesday so get ready for some pics of them :D

http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd168/nfc11/DSC00238.jpg

[Liz]

Oh bless the mum in waiting.:D

She looks like she'll be glad when Tuesday comes! Looking forward to news of the arrivals.

[kitty]

I can't wait for it for her, seeing her struggle to do things she normally does. The other night she tried to jump the wall to greet me as i came home from work which she normally does but this time she couldn't make it :(

[Liz]

Oh bless her! Still not long now.:D

[teenybash]

Looking forward to seeing the little ones.......I see that Mum has the milk bar stocked and ready so they will end up like little puddings. :)

[ShelleyCowie]

Aww bless! I really want one! lol

[kitty kat]

poor her eyes are screaming get em out[lol]

lol not long til u is a granny kitty pmsl you getting grey hairs yet :lol:

[girnigoe]

Thank you. I know, she looks so fed up with it all. I was thinking exactly the same as you about when i was pregnant and i too only had one, at least it gives me sympathy for her. lol [lol]

[lynne duncan]

hi when our cocker had hers (last sept she went five days early) the day she went into labour she was not herself at all couldn't settle all day and then about 10o'clock at night she had a show when i let her out for the toilet. about an hour after that she started shivering quite violently, and at midnight the first pup was born.

I stayed with hepzie the whole night are you planning sitting up with your spaniel or just going to let her get on with it

She's had some shivers this morning and is now being very quiet and starting to dig up her bed so looks like she's on her way now.

I'm going to see what she wants to do, i know i'll be able to tell if she wants me around or wants to be left alone so i'll just wait and see, I know one thing for sure though and thats if she does start having them through the night i won't be getting much sleep whether she wants the company or not i'm already waking up every couple of hours and checking on her and her bed is only a couple of feet away from mine :D. It's like having a baby of my own again [lol]

[Tugmistress]

Good luck with the pups, it's a magical time. I've been there with sasha through both her litters, 8 each time and i had the biggest stupidest grin ever on my face.

[kitty]

[Liz]

Oh that's wonderful!:D Are they all okay?

[ShelleyCowie]

Wooopee! I have been watchin this since u said it might be starting! :)

Hope they are all doin fine!

[kitty]

Everything seems to be fine, she looked like she was rejecting the first one and kept trying to hide behind me, she wasn't sure of the noise the pup was making so we put her in the kitchen to have some time to herself and when we went back in to check there were 4 pups and she was feedign them so we'll wait and see if there are any more. I'm sooooooo happy. lol :D:D

[ShelleyCowie]

Aw that is awsome news! Hope all the pups are doing fine. :Razz

[kitty]

Pictures will be posted tomorrow as soon as i know that everything is ok for definate

What a handsome Dad they have!
Have you told him he's a Dad?lol

[kitty]

Yes Liz we have told him but if i don't set eyes on him soon i'll be asking for some child support. lol [lol]

She's seeming fine now and all the pups are feeding well, looks like we've got 4 boys and 2 girls but that was just a quick check, i could be completely wrong :D

[Liz]

I should think so as well Kitty! Mind you he will want visitation rights so could get complicated.:confused

Glad the family are all doing well.

Looking forward to seeing their progress.

[teenybash]

Typical father, either lounging around the house or messing about outside.[lol]
Hope he takes his responsibilities serious now that he has bairns.....
Looking forward to all the pics.

[Foxy]

The puppies are so cute, mum and dad are very nice to. Would love another springer as we lost our last one a few years ago but hubby says no as we have 2 jack russells and a german pointer.

They make such brilliant loving pets don't they? I'm a sucker for animals as well and would have a house full of them but i'm not allowed anymore either. You'd think i'd be happy with 2 dogs, 6 puppies, a cat and a rabbit though wouldn't you [lol]

[Sarah]

They are beautiful! :)

[kitty]

They are beautiful! :)


Thank you Sarah :D

[kitty]

Thought i'd add a couple of p hotos now they are a week old. The pups are all doing really well, had to take mum to the vets yesterday, she's got mastitis (not sure of the spelling) but anyway, she's on the mend, a lot happier today and the lump is a bit smaller.

Oh and can anyone tell me how to resize the pictures so they don't appear so big? Thanks in advance

[Liz]

Oh bless them!:D I just want to tickle those wee pink bowgs!lol

Glad Mum is feeling better as mastitis (correct spelling!)is really painful.

Thanks Liz, its great watching them as they are trying to stand up now and they just sort of wobble and fall over, i could watch them all night. Mum is defiantely a lot better, yesterday she was just a bit under the weather and wanting to sleep and not doing her usual running around but she's back to running around and having a waggy bum again :D

[ShelleyCowie]

Aww they look so lovely! :Razz Growing good by the looks of it!

Mastitis is very painful, i had it! And it is not nice. Poor thing.

I was lucky enough to never get it.

I'd say they've doubled in size in the week if not a bit more, not long til their eyes start to open :D

[Dadie]

I know how the mum feels mastitis is bl**dy sore. you feel as if you have flu hot and cold and a really sore boob!

But the pups look well with their little fat tums...

not that I was on here looking:lol: honest!

Well four weeks on and this is how the pups are looking now. All playing, causing trouble and getting into things they shouldn't be. I'd be disappointed if it was any other way.

[ShelleyCowie]

Awwww look! They are gettin so big! I was just thinkin the other day about them....little monsters eh! :Razz

[lisbit]

Oh they are so adorable and minds me when we got ours. It doesnt take long for them to get on their feet. Our breeder said it was great to see the personalities develop. How is mum coping? I bet they are loveable handfuls lol

[Liz]

Lovely to see these cute wee souls doing so well!:D

Thats what i'm liking as well, you can see which one likes to get in about things that they shouldn't and which one likes the most contact with us and just cheekyness its great :lol:

[kitty]

Thanks Liz, Shelley and Teenybash. I'm loving every minute of having them, even though i am constantly on the go cleaning up after them and getting them out of corners they shouldn't be in. And despite not having a minute to myself at the moment i know that i am going to miss them when they are gone, i might have to get myself a hobby to fill in the time [lol]

[kitty]

Well thats all the puppies in their new homes now and doing fine, they have all gone to people i know so i can see all of them. The house is very quiet now.

Mum has settled down well without them so we're just waiting a couple of weeks until her milk dries up and she's off to the vet to get spayed. She seems relieved to have some time to herself again and she's getting her energy back now.

Thanks to everyone who has shown interest in the pups and mum :D

[Liz]

I'll bet the house is quiet!:D

It is good that you can see them all though and lovely that they are in good homes.
Well done for taking care of them and mum so well.

[teenybash]

Lovely that you will be able to see the puppies now that they are in their new homes...........I bet mummy dog will enjoy having her life back again and will be hoping for lots of cuddles... all to herself.
Well done you for coping with it all and finding lovely homes.:)

Thanks Liz, I'm so delighted with how well mum has coped with it all, she's been a real trooper, and she's actually managed to keep some weight on her instead of losing it all from feeding the pups :D

Thanks teenybash. She is definately happy to have her life back and be getting the bulk of the attention again, tbh she didn't even really seem to mind when they left. :D

[carasmam]

Glad everything went well and I bet mum will enjoy being the centre of attention again and getting some peace :D It's great that you can keep in contact with the pups, it will good to see how their personalities develop as they grow up.
Well done on being a responsible breeder and having loving homes lined up for them too :D
