@chenke yes of course you can ! It is the work of a few seconds to change a photo once the program knows it needs to look for one.

Saying prayers and keeping fingers and toes crossed that all goes well and you soon have good puppy news (and pictures) to share.

All prayers and good wishes Robyn and Bindi. Hopefully she doesn't hang in there till your fingernails are gone like sister Sugar.

Prayers on the way

Bindi started having contractions about 11 am and puppy #1 was born at 2:16 pm. It was a hard delivery. The pup was head first but turned sideways and Bindi had a hard time getting it out. The pup is a red girl and she hit the ground running! This little gal is possibly the most vigorous pup I have ever seen. She has done so many laps around the puppy pen that I just started calling her "Lady Nascar". :p
Being a dog breeder can be one of the most rewarding hobbies but at times, it can be one of the saddest. Puppy #2, a tri male, was stillborn at 3:54 pm. He was born breech and Bindi had a rough time getting him out. Puppy #3, a tri female, was stillborn at 5:10 pm. Both puppies had the skin on the top of their heads missing, exposing their skulls. This is a first for me and I'm sure I'm going to have nightmares about it.
Bindi is exhausted and she is napping with Lady Nascar. Thusfar, Bindi's milk has not come in. Bindi is still rather large so I don't think she is through giving birth. I sincerely hope any remaining pups are alive and healthy but I really just want Bindi (and the pup) to be ok.
-
I'm so sorry about the two Robyn, but thankfully at least one is okay. That may have been why she was off. Good wishes for the rest on the way.

"Lady Nascar" (No, that name won't "stick" for long)
-
Oh Robyn….such a bitter sweet day for you. Still sending good thoughts and prayers to you, Bindi and little 'Lady Nascar' (actually I'm calling her Danica in my head--I know that's Indy, but she's just sooo pretty)
Big basenji hugs from Katie and Ty to Bindi,

Robyn, we are so sorry about the two stillborn pups. I hope #1 continues to thrive and Bindi does fine. Please continue to keep us informed. Still saying prayers that all goes well….

Prayers & best wishes that Bindi & the other pups are safe & healthy!

Oh my. Bless Bindi's little heart. I'll be thinking of you all and sending good thoughts your way.

With my Fatia's litter I have one pup with exposed skull…. he was born 4 hrs after the other 4... A worse breeders nightmare.. he was still alive and I had to get him to the Vet to be PTS, asap.....
So sorry for the still borns....Another reason for xrays before birth... we knew that there was at least 4 but there was a 5th we thought, and so that was right... and so when she only whelped 4 in 2 hrs, we knew there was a problem.... and was able to stay in touch with the Vet... and deal with the last pup....
-
4th puppy arrived stillborn at 9:56 pm. It's head was open with an exposed skull too. As far as I can tell, Bindi's milk has not let down either. I'll be at the vet's office when they open in the morning. Hopefully Bindi's milk will flow by then but if not, a shot of oxytocin should clean her out and bring in the milk.
I am stunned. I just don't believe this is happening. THREE puppies in one litter? WTH is going on here?
-
Robyn, What a hard year for you. I am just stunned by these events. It will be interesting to hear what the vet has to say. And this little girl needs a special name worthy of being such a survivor.
Sending big hugs your way…
Pat and all

I have a name selected, assuming she lives. sighs

Did I mention that my "new" computer died yesterday? 2009 isn't getting off to a good start.
-
I'll be thinking of you, Bindi, and the pup. I hope the rest of the evening is uneventful and the vet visit goes well in the morning.
-
Robyn, I am so sorry things aren't going well. You, Bindi, and Little Nascar are in my prayers.
-
I'm sorry Robyn.
I do understand why you named her Little Nascar-she has a racing stripe!
Let us know what happens at the vet.
-
Robyn,
just wanted you to know we are sending good feelings and hope to your little girl who made it. I'm very sorry to hear about all the difficulties with this litter. Big hugs from Lycia and I.
-
I am so sorry Robyn. That must be so traumatic for everyone. Hugs to all of you..and thoughts and prayers for little Nascar girl.
