Hi Nonnie, I won't think about taking my dog to the vet . I have the medical bills and reciepts to show I did. Not all breeders are horrible. Please open you eyes to that. If someone did not breed then we would not have the dogs we do .. I don't want to go on and on but there are responsible breeders out there.
Joseph , my little one that had the lack of oxgen at birth (born at a vet clinic too) anyway , I could breed him,but how would I explain when people say "who's the daddy and I point to a little dog that see's only shadows" It is obvious that he has problems.. It breaks my heart and I love him so so much that I can't bare to part with him so he is neutered and is my baby.. I helped be a part to bring him in this world and he is with me . If I found a loving person for him I might consider placing him but I cry at the thought. HE is MY baby and I love him .. So their are good breeders out there that love the dogs..

Convince me you are doing this KNOWLEDGEABLY and RATIONALLY. Why did you breed these dogs and what have you done to ensure its NOT an indiscriminate breeding. THe question you asks admits you don't know what you are doing..... Tell me why did you breed the dog in the first place. > > What are you going to do IF you dog is preganant and has a problem you going to think about taking her to the vet.

I do not appreciate an hateful email such as yours. I"m an educated woman and I would not put my dogs at any harm. My dogs probably live a better life than most humans!!!!!!!!!!!! After all, you do not know me, therefore do not judge me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have such strong opinons against dogs, and breeding, then why are you even a member of this group? You should be ashame to post such an hateful response. > > Nonnie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > some people should NEVER start breeding. What is so outstanding that more dogs need to be created that someday will face being Put To Sleep at a shelter?????? Aren't there enough dogs and animals dying every day... but of course.. it would NEVER happen to anything anyone bred personally right. > > I'd consider the whole breeding issue again.....

At least not as stupid as asking others where your own website is, lol. Seriously, if you are new to breeding, there is absolutely nothing stupid or unusual about not being able to tell for sure at 6 weeks. Most of the time, they are showing by this time, but not always. > > First, I would wait at least another week before I bothered to go to the vet. No sense paying a lot of money when you still have some time. Second, yes, staying swollen is one indication of possible pregnancy. > > I want to share the same website with you that I share with all new breeders who want generalized answers. I think it is one of the best websites to get the basics. www.debbiejensen.com > > There is a link on this site that shows you how to palpitate to see if you can feel anything. There are also other signs to look for. > > If you have any questions, feel free to ask anyone on the group. Also, there is a great yahoo group of chi breeders that has excellent advice to offer.. Sometimes they can get a bit harsh if they feel your breeding is not up to their standards, but you could still listen in to what others have to say and will learn a lot. That site is the chipregnancy yahoo group. > > Finally, there is a smaller group that has breeders that can offer excellent advice and you will not get the hassle from them that you may get on the larger group. However, I would have to check with the group owner before posting that group, as she is particular about making sure no one joins who wants to fuss. > > Feel free to ask questions!

I had my female chi bred, almost 6 weeks ago. My breeder thinks she might be pregnant, but I"m still not for sure. So if her 'private' area is still swollen, b/c hers' is, is that a sign that she is preg? I would like for her to be, but I'm tired of the guessing game? I'm seriously thinking of taking her to the vet on Monday to get the answer to my question, it is driving me crazy.!!!!!!!!!!! Unless you can tell me............. Thanks for any help. Melody > > marsha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > no need to worry. Well, your a guy, maybe you need to worry about her PMS? lol, jk. She is fine as far as swelling goes. It will go away as the heat cycle ends unless she is pregnant. > > Marsha > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Don > To: [email protected] > Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 2:12 AM > Subject: [Chihuahuas] Concerned Father > > > My little Pepper just went into her first heat cycle and I am jus > wondering how long I can expect this to last?
