Singletons

The current advice seems to be to schedule a c-section and not wait around.

I would appreciate hearing from you if you had a bitch deliver a singleton naturally? If yes, at how many days? Actually, I would appreciate hearing of any singleton experiences.

Re: Singletons

yes, I've had two different bitches deliver a singleton successfully. they were right at 63 days. no problems with either baby.

Re: Singletons

I've had 1 singleton and 1 twins delivered naturally without any complications. I think it was right on the date, but not sure.

Re: Singletons

I hsd a single puppy delivered by c-section. Had a friend who waited and waited...single pup born dead.

Re: Singletons

yes yes yes! Twice and very successfully.

Re: Singletons

We did the C and glad. The second time did not know only two so did not and lost one and had singleton again to bring up. Who knows. I don't want to lose a pup.

Re: Singletons

was advised by repro vet to do progesterone to be sure pup was ready and than do C section.

Prog levels went up and down for 2 days, did the c on day 64 pup born alive but hardly breathing and did not survive
