The smaller of the two shes really dinky

They both need a bit more meat on them and the bitch thats pregnant is getting 5 meals a day now small and often to build her up a little and make her comfy cos shes pretty big and her bellys rock hard so shes finding it hard to eat a lot in a sitting.The little one lives for kids and has been playing with my daughter all day so far she islike a rocket when she runs lol

How did you come by her - do you run a rescue centre or do the police etc drop off dogs for you to offer temporary homes to? Hope all goes well with her. Good luck.

They were brought here after a really sad serious of events.I help a few rescues mainly my dads but i have done dogs myself becuase no one else would help or theyve been found and people who know me locally come with dogs theyve found or in some cases if a family member has died and they cant deal with it theres been loads of differant types through here and all are in homes and doing great.I rehome to working homes as well i hate the tarring all people with the same brush type attitude if theyre going to look after the dog properly then i cant see a problem if they want to use it to work with i work mine so id have a bit of a cheek being any other way.

A vet scan could help with a due date and with numbers to expect, but I don't need to tell you that.

Very brave and commendable of you to take them on yourself.

The hardest part for most rescues is the home for pups. Will they not give backing?

fair play to ya :thumbs:

The pups will be rehomed by me and they will have lifetime back up from me Shes due for a scan on Tuesday or wednesday if i cant make it on Tuesday got loads of big appointments.To be honest shes really low and looking pretty depressed so im guessing its not too far away.Theyve been the perfect guests and i went out earlier and got skinners puppy to try and get her some condition cos this will strip whats left and she cant afford it shes thin now so needs building up as best we can to make sure she doesnt suffer.I rehome to working homes people in flats and people with kids a lot dont for some reason cant see the problem as i said if the dogs well looked after theres not much more you could ask for.If she doesnt feed the pups ive a surrogate lined up as well and the kit to hand rear if needed and im digging out old towels and bedding and what not to get started and need to keep all the newspapers

As you say she looks a little under weight but thats something soon sorted and probably better that way than overweight for whelping.

All the best with it and hope for a good out come for all concerned

Thank you mate will soon get her up to scratch shes having lots of smalls meals and lambs milk added and going to see what else i can find to add in there to help.Shes so young and so laid back nothing seems to bother her too much
