My best friend has been in my life since before either of us could walk or talk. Our parents were friends before either of us was born so we've just always been together. She is one SMART cookie and is always there for me regardless what's wrong. She called me today and has given me what I think is an awesome idea, so I've placed close to 20 calls to local vet clinics, rescues and humane societies looking for a litter or even a single baby for Montana to adopt. Amazingly, none had a need right now but several said that could change in 5 minutes, so I left my name and number and made a few new friends in the process. LOL
It would just do my heart good to be able to give Montana her own babies and create a positive out of this very sad situation. So please all who are of the praying kind... lets pray that Montana gets her babies whether they go WOOF or meow... I doubt it matters as long as she finds something to love that can love her back.

Now that IS a wonderful idea!!!! Your friend sounds like a wonderful person, it's very comforting to have someone like that in your life. Hope, and pray Montana finds a baby or babies very soon to help her through this. Please do keep us posted.

Tink, can't you let Montana nurse some of Canada's puppies?

I questioned this myself and decided against it for 2 reasons.
The 2 females have been best buddies for years and have always been together. As such, they're part of the same "pack". By giving any of Canadas pups to Montana I'd be upsetting the balance between the 2 females forever. They could very easily learn to hate each other and not be able to peacefully co-exist again. Canada will not give hers up willingly and in taking them from her, I'm also taking her rank as the "top female" or breeder of the "pack". IF for any reason Montana wouldn't be successfull in nursing the pups after several days, there's a good chance Canada would them refuse to take them back and I could end up with 2 dogs that hate each other, pups at risk, and a long term hierarchy problem that wouldn't mend. Right now Canada is doing an excellent job and the pups are growing and doing great. I really don't want to mess with that. Pack mentality is not something to be taken lightly.
