We just got back from the Vet.
Canada has a slight fever and is still draining more than normal, so Doc put her on antibiotics this morning. She's eating well, nursing fine, etc... so it seems we caught it early. He did a thorough exam and said there are no pups left in the birth canal which was my big fear.
The Dew claws got removed without complication, and all 8 pups were judged healthy and strong.
WHEW! What amazed me is that Canada is down to 67 lbs... from her usual 82 NON-pregnant normal. Doc says she looks good at this weight so he wasn't at all concerned. LOL Gee, think she was a bit round before? lol
