Hi ................oh yes, sorry been a bit tied up, we have 2 litters of 6 pups, I posted about Poppy's under pictures.......Jasmine had her's on Thursday, we have 4 boys 2 girl, sadly another little girl was still born. One of the boy pups is giving me a bit of concern at the moment, he's a bit rattley chest and not feeding, but we've now got him on Synulox drops, although he's not suckling from Jasmine, he will take some from the bottle, so I will carry on this way and hope he picks up soon. He still seems quite lively in himself, so it's just a matter of waiting for the AB's to kick in! and hope he picks up.
