Update on the puppy
I made the post about the mother burying the pup. Unfortunately the pup didn't make it. I am thankful for everyone who gave me advice. I'll take the necessary precautions to avoid such a situation from occurring again. The other pups and mum will be examined tomorrow by our vet.🙏🏾
Due to some uncalled for comments and assumptions I will also leave this here.
1. Our dog isn't spayed and the whole pregnancy was unexpected to say the least. Spaying a dog is really pricey where I live and unfortunately it was not at the top of my parents priority list. If I could, I would but I'm an unemployed 18 yr old.
2.Breeding. We don't breed (backyard breeding?)our dog nor do we sell puppies. This pregnancy was purely accidental and unexpected. 881
The puppies will be given out to people who can take good care of them. We will spay the dog when we can to avoid such an incident from occurring again.
1. Feeding. We'll adjust the diet if it might be a cause for such a situation to occur. Other than that the dogs get what I believe to be quality food daily
2. I made this post immediately after the dog tried it the first time because I genuinely had no idea what to do cause when I returned her to the other pups she was buried again and the mum refused to feed her. With it being a day old pup I didn't know what to do next about the feeding or warmth cause I've never been in such a situation. Of course I didn't leave the pup in the soil, if you came to the post earlier you'd see that I edited the saved bit in almost immediately after I made the post. Immediately when I got an answer I rolled with it which in this case was vet. i also saw more on this article
Again, thank you to those who assisted 881
