I was wondering, when your bitches are due to whelp, how many of you let her whelp herself and how many help her through the whole thing? (Remove the sac, cut the cords, clean the fluid from the mouth, etc.)? Or do you let your girl do some of it and you do some things for her? I am one of those who does everything for her, but give birth. LOL, Barbara Galasso ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
