Sad about Jessie's puppies

So sad. I hope the puppies make it. Sounds like Jessie is trying very hard.
I have never heard of this before.. is it a common thing with litters?

I know nothing about having puppies - but I know I would have a really hard time with struggling puppies - I'm a big weenie with suffering animals.

I'm glad you went over there, but gladder the pups were doing better!!!

There is nothing like a hug from your mother to make a girl feel better! I'm glad you went to see her, and I'm so glad some of the puppies are doing better.

I'm glad the puppies are doing better. They must have a strong will to survive.

How heartbreaking for Jessie. Of course she needed a hug from her Mother!!! I'm glad to hear that some of the pups are doing better. Hopefully the last one will start feeding better. Give Jessie a hug from me too!!

Thanks for your good wishes! The puppies are doing better!!! The vet said at 3 weeks, if they survive, they should be fine. I think they have a few days to go.

Janet, she is supplementing with goat's milk by dropper. The vet told her she can't give them nutrical, or even glucose water yet. I don't know why, but the goat's milk is protein and that's what they need right now he said. She said thanks for the suggestions!

So, hopefully, they will get stronger and thrive well!

Goats milk is good. The Vet is right...you can't give them Nutrical, but you can give them Nutridrops on their gums (at least Yorkie puppies you can). I'm so glad they are doing better.
