Sad News At Big Ears !
Fiona , just gave birth to a litter , had to be put down . Vet did a series of expensive tests that suggested expensive options . Favorite suspect was , X-rays showed she swallowed a neckless ? Seems she had a toxic reaction to the metal ? Hit fast . Luckily found a vet tech , who's dog will whelp in a couple days , to wet nurse our puppies !
This is why I don't promise pups before I'm sure they're stable & healthy . These puppies will be evaluated in a few weeks . Scary how life changes . Fiona was a good dog , as sick as she was !
