I am on the duty in Animal Nursing right now, I felt that my dog will give birth this week and I was right for she’s showing the sign just this morning. She shows the reckless and forming her nest, and never shown any appetite the whole day so I guess it’s really the time I and she was waiting for.
It’s was started at 4 PM I just visit her and see the bag in her womb, I was a bit worried and choose to hold the bag for she shows something unusual, it’s her first time giving birth so it’s just her instinct to gives the procedure in her own and some help to me. I'm a bit worried that she will attack me but that didn’t happen.
I hold the bag and I was shocked to see the puppy full of water and it's normal but the sock of his waste is unusual it naturally happened to animals when the time of giving birth was been late. I check the puppy and he was not breathing to I opened the mouth and blows him some air while massaging the heart part of the newborn canine. I heard the cries so I must say it will survive, the mother gives her trust in me on holding the puppies but I need to be gentle in my holdings.
Well I am an Agriculturist and giving birth to animals was just a normal instinct to us, in my life experience and school practice, we been tried to give birth to swine, goats, sheep, carabao and cows. Well, carabao and cow is the most crucial and hectic one for she will only bear one calf and it takes a long month journey so farmer should be careful in doing the job, the risk in the life of the mother and calf will subject. Swine is also a hard time for it takes time to wait but some techniques are also to be used, like synthesizing artificial proteins.
Back to the dog, the second one seemed not normal and the I was shocked really when I see her. The baby was quite silent yet breathing, the first one was loud and voiced yet the second one was quite in the place. She was breathing anyway and I just had to wait just more but after the third one arrived, I felt really something so I check his belly and I found the reason. There is a cut in her belly flesh and I just wish it will heal and the puppies will survive.
It was 6:30 PM and I don’t want to leave her but my parents will scold me LOL, so I take my dinner when I see Seven puppies are crawling in the bloody corner and the mother gives them milk. The sign that no one or just one or two will arrive next is that they will feed their young’s, so I get up and choices to take my shower and write an article.
This is impromptu write so if there is misspelt or grammatical please bear with me.
It’s not my first time giving birth to a dog. But if you had a dog that giving birth, some mothers are highly territorial. So careful when touching their babies and showing other dogs for they had the instinct of danger so they might bite you or the other dogs, that’s my practice. Dog really don’t need human help for delivering their young’s, but for me, the probability of giving them help will eventually give a high survival rate to the young’s.
Do you have experience in giving birth to animals? If none makes sure you use protective gears and if you’re afraid of blood don’t give it a try, you also need some wound disinfectant like wound spray and Vetadine, don’t use alcohol for it might create some pain and might get trouble. Giving birth might easy as it looked but be careful with the behaviours of your pet. Even she recognized your smell she could get the survival instinct from the wild.
