Afterbirth flush, and vaccinations..?
Answers:
ohhh nice question SEE A VET!! dont make us ill perlease.. remote part of the world? where for heavens sake?
For the discharge, your dog should see a vet just to be on the safe side. Most vets recommend that vaccines start at 6 weeks and boosted 2-3 weeks apart for about 3-4 total vaccines.
She will probably just lick up this discharge herself. Your should start with shots when there about 9 weeks old. Call your vet to double check. If you want to just give her a bath once a week to pamper the poor momma
Hiya Simon
i would seek a vets advice asap, it could be clotted blood she is loosing, dont mean to scare you hun, hope someone has a true answer for you ... :-) injections for the pups from 12 weeks
Vaccinations for the pups start from 12 weeks.
The black tar like stuff your dog is passing could mean that she has an infection, this can be life threatening and you really should speak to a vet.
If you are in a remote area, you should be able to speak to a vet, describing symptoms and maybe have antibiotics posted to you.
AW.I'm right in the middle of eating a steak and kidney pie.
vaccinations start at 3 weeks theres no flush thats normal
I HIGHLY recommend consulting a veterinarian about the discharge. 10 days seems like a long time to still be seeing this, of course I don't have much experience with whelping puppies.HOWEVER, the fact that the discharge is black does not sound good. I know that sometimes this can mean that there's a dead fetus still in the womb or birth canal (sorry to be gross). Definitely have her checked out by a vet.
I do know that, depending on their size, puppies can start getting their vaccinations around 6 weeks and should be weaned and ready to go to their new homes by 8 weeks. It's a good idea to consult a vet about this, as well.
as for the discolored discharge, they will do this while pups are nursing. It will get more faint w/time.
Once they are no longer nursing her, give them their 1st shot right then. Do not let them nurse anymore after the shot.
You might want to try feeding them alittle at 4-5 weeks old.
Have them checked for worms at 2 weeks old. Then your vet will set you up on a time chart to return.
While your at the vets, don't forget to ask him-HOW TO HELP DRY DAMS MILK UP, once she has finished nursing pups. GOOD LUCK!
i would definately take the dog to the vets as it could become something dangerous. The vaccinations start between 9-11 weeks
Sorry, I don't know about the flush, but I wouldn't worry - dogs are quite capable of taking care of themselves if left to roam around and find their own medicine.
Do NOT get yor dog (or yourself) vaccinated.
A vaccinated person/dog is MORE likely to get a disease than a non-vaccinated person/dog. The whole theory of vaccination is flawed. It causes a weakening of the immune system thus making those who are innoculated more susceptible to disease.
There are so many awful side effects to vaccination that it should be considered extremely dangerous.
Just sit back and think for a while.
Is there any sense in injecting a disease directly into the bloodstream.
We have been subjected to an awful mind control program to enable the drug manufacturers to make a fortune.
