Hi all just thought i share the excited of the birth of my pups now only a week and a bit away, this is a breeding i have chosen after a lot of thought and some good advise off a few respected members on here, and this is what i chose for the type of land i run which consists of smallish fields with thick hedges.

My bitch who stands at 241/2" tts is a line breed coursing dog out of Gary Dickensons Red which was a well known folley cup winner,who was put over a bitch called cassie.

The sire I have chosen is a very tightly breed nine year old proven 26" tts bullx called micky from Manchester area.

my bitch before and my bitch now at 7 1/2 weeks gone and the sire

I've been flat out making my whelping box this weekend and now finally finished and would like to thank Socks for some great info,

how exciting it all is becoming and how much your bitch can change shape and the other thing i've found with her how much more affectionate she has become has anyone else found this and did you get excited?, this breeding has been done for myself and a few close friend in our group there may be 1 or 2 left that will be offer to the right person.

well thats all for now will be doing regular updates and pic's as it happens so cheers for now atb Ian

It's funny you say that my Bitch was the same a pure pet when in pup they feel sorry for themselves :L just becarefull I bred the same way really and the Bitch lost 3 pups due to the birth canal being 2 small but Atb wit it I know how u feel it's most exciting

Cheers for that spiderfly and for this info I will keep a close eye on her when the time come :-)

When she gets restless and starts making a nest in her bed time it cause a pup cud get stuck, give a small walk to get her free of a fluid build up! Best of luck Wit it all

what is the best remedy if the birth canal is small and the Dog is struggling ??

Is this a common problem does anybody know.

[spiderfly 111]

Not a common problem but when you have a big dog and a small bit wit a small birth canal a width muscle in the back end the vet and give and injection to relax the muscles and this helps if not a c section is a must or you will lose Bitch and pups this is what my vet advised me

never new that mate you learn somthing everyday on here, what about if a big bitch is that ok then ?

[spiderfly 111]

I would image be fine but bulls throw big headed pups hard for a smAll Bitch to push out

Thanks for the advice

Bird that jab is called oxytocin and a mill normaly does the job.

Only use it if the bitch is clearly struggling.

Best done under vetinary supervision.

It does what it says on the tin, very good stuff.
