Hi all,
this is the first time I have posted and hope you don't mind me starting with a few of questions.
We have a litter of puppies now 15 days old, one of the girls is very small, she is feeding well and gaining weight but slower gaining than the rest, she seems very content and does enjoy her feeds, the problem is she breaths quite fast and heavy as if putting effort in, she is quite flat on the chest and in the center of her chest it sinks right in when she’s breathing, her eyes are still closed too.
I’m watching her round the clock but with the others been so much bigger and stronger I feel my heart is breaking daily, do any of you have experience in this and the possible causes, she has been on a full course of antibiotics but no difference.
The others are weighing in at around 8-900g and our little pea is only 436g
Thanks for reading.
