    Vet Update- Pictures

    Thats what I said, she is only 41 days- she still has a couple weeks left, she is a mixed breed dog so I am unsure how many puppies are average for her, know with Shih Tzu they average 3-5 a litter, most are only 3 and with poodles they average 3-8 or so depending on the size of the poodle. so...

    Vet Update- Pictures

    I just got back from the vets with my dog, She has gained 3.7 pounds in the last 41 days, she is doing well and my vet is not concerned abut the panting, she said I should probally just cut her hair down so she isnt as hot. She said the added weight and the puppies are making her "feel" as if...

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    Thank you all for the wonderful ideas, I have been reading as much information on both breeds as I can. I was aware that the pups could be anything from a shih tzu to a poodle and something in between, the people I know who would like pups are also aware of this as I made sure to tell them...

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    I would never advertise them as a purebred, when it all comes down to it they are a mixed breed dog. I got lucky (I use the word loosly) that the male was of the same mix. They will be listed as what they are. As for the C-section, I have money aside for my pets vet bills at all times. I am...

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    Thank you.... We will most def be spaying her so this NEVER happens again, as for the listing for the puppies, she is a shih tzu cross poodle as is the male, I am curious as to why refering to her as a Shih Poo (which is short form for the 2 breeds) is not an acceptable statement? I am curious...

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    her snout is a bit longer than the shih tzu If I can figure out how I will post a picture of her so you can see what I mean. The panting is not a normal thing for her except of course in the summer time I figured out how to get the picture onto here for you to see her hopefully it works.

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    After posting I did realize that it does sound very irresponsible HOWEVER there is a reason she is NOT already spayed, please don't think I am trying to make any excuses, we got our dog when she was 6 months and during her first heat, we have one other dog who is a neutered male, (we also have a...

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    I DO NOT feed my dogs any of the large company highly recommended food, I actually feed a brand that most people dont even know about. It is sold exclusivly by a pet store in my area and is fantastic. But thank you for your concern. I agree that most vets will recommend food that isnt that great.

    Pregnant Shih Poo question

    I am most definatly not free feeding her although I am sure she would LOVE that, I live in Southern Ontario, Canada, there is nothing warm about where I live at this time of year, again the panting is not a constant just different for her. I checked her and there is no discharge, I am wondering...
