Hello, and welcome to the group, I am Marsha and I am owned by 5 chis. I am a bit concerned about your current situation. I understand the deal about a lack of money, but I would be very worried about the little chi...especially if they dad is much bigger. You could be taking a chance loosing both the mom and puppies. There isn't much we on this group can do to help you since you need to have an experienced person on hand during delivery......she may even need a c-section. I strongly encourage you to speak to a vet...go to several if neccessary, and explaine your situation and see if they could set up a payment plan. Most vets these days do have some form of payment plan, even if it is via an outside credit association. I know you care about your baby, but I would be lying if I told you that you had nothing to worry about. If nothing else works out, contact a local chi rescue group and see if they can offer advice or possibly even someone to assit you when the delivery time comes. Finally, as a third option, there is a company, their link is somewhere online, but I can't remember it...maybe someone else knows....that offeres a one time financial assitance in paying emergancy vet bills. You have to fill out an application, ect, and they pay the vet directly if they approve you. I will try to find this link from my rescue groups and post it if I find it. Please try to find some way to access a vet.
We are happy to help you in anyway we can, but short of actually being there, there isn't much we can do to help you on this. Welcome to the group and best of luck. Marsha > Hello everyone!
