Hi,
Please don’t judge me for this question as I’m devastated & very fragile right now over this.
My friend’s British bulldog recently had pups, there was a runt and the other pups were healthy, I went to help my friend who was overwhelmed at the beginning when the pups were a few days old for 2 hours with the pups & also did some gardening for her that day. I was diligent with my hand hygiene while handling the pups.
The pups were in the whelping box & I tried many times to latch the runt who subsequently died a few days later.
Since then a few more puppies have died from fading puppy syndrome & now the blame has been laid square on me because I mentioned that my own healthy little dog who I do love & care for wasn’t up to date with her vaccinations or worming tablets, (she is now).
I have been blamed for the death of the puppies and made to feel I’m the cause & scapegoat. I was not the only person to handle the pups at a young age, plenty of others handled them too after I was there.
Is it possible that if my dog had worms at the time, which I’m sure she didn’t, that I could have carried that to the puppies, an autopsy of one has revealed it had worms even though the pups were wormed very early & on antibiotics.
So many of my online searches say that dogs can transmit worms to humans but I cannot find any to say that humans can transmit worms to a dog.

always have milk replacer on hand before your puppies are born just in case you have an emergency do you already have it also make sure to have a nice clean area that is out of the way how’s traffic in your house so the dog is comfortable is not in a noisy part of your house make sure that your house is kept at a good temperature so the puppies do not get cold good luck on your newsletter

Light or dark Karo Syrup?

Thank you!

Hi my name is Katie, we have a little girl (coco) Pomeranian who has just a week ago had three puppies all doing great two boys gaining weight massively and girl was also until 3 days ago she dropped from 10.9oz back down to day twos weight of 8.6 oz, since then I have taken her on as she wasn’t suckling and was weak and lifeless I have religiously fed 2 hourly a ml of formula to her oz of weight, she is now 9.1oz dropping and gaining frequently I have been giving liquid glucose thinking it could be hypoglycaemia she is warmed and I am doing everything I can for her…
I have taken her the vets who seems to think she has a lump in her abdomen I’m a nurse and cannot feel this she said she will not be urinating or opening her bowels because of this then to her surprise she pooped on the table and urinated on her which she is doing regularly and of a normal consistency to which she made comment on euthanasia which I will never do she is trying to stay alive and I will too.. she drinks from a syringe and will also sickle although it’s weak and too weak to suckle from mum I have tried keeping her with mum as much as I can do she can clean her ect
How long can fading go on for? Does this sound like that situation or would you say more just being the runt of litter and needs extra care I can’t see any massive improvements and not sure what else I can do …
any help is appreciated and thankyou for your time.
Regards katie
