I would be interested in knowing if the owner uses liquid Ivermectin for HW prevention or a pill? And, any antibiotics given while in season? Barb Hively - PA DNA.

Yep, the one bitch I am talking about started out with 7 puppies maybe more) shown on the ultrasound. Then she just stopped growing. wner took her in to the repro vet who did the ultra sound...another ne done and it showed four being reabsorbed and three remaining. At helping, one was born dead, two alive but one failed on the second ay leaving one very robust puppy. Because the owner wanted to try gain (she previously had had 7 healthy pups) the bitch was tested or mycoplasma, thyroid, total blood work, the works and everything ame back normal!!! No explanation about the reabsorption. ay n Dec 16, 2011, at 6:22 PM, InquestGSD@xxxxxxx wrote: > This is another one. What is in the environment that can cause this problem? Just last week talked to 2 different people, 3 bitches total, reabsorbing the pups. What gives? These are all animals that have good health check ups, are in good health, 1 even checked for thyroids, all comes back good. They are conceiving, but reabsorbing. * Ileana * Inquest GSD's, Home of : DEXTER, aka BISS 3x Sel EX AM CH & 2x Sel CAN CH Karizma's Cacique of Inquest TC, DM normal JACKIE, aka Kaleef's Expensive Date (major pointed) and the Poodle Patrol, Bunny, Huckleberry and Doc Holliday In a message dated 12/16/2011 9:14:42 P.M.
