Cindy, There are NO emergency vets around here. I did recieve a call from the vet after over an hour and thankfully I had already given her the benedryl and it is helping or I am sure she would have suffocated. She still kind of sounds like a pug but the vet assured me that I did the right thing and he feels that since she is having a positive result from the benedryl he does not want to give her epi as it will stop or slow her labor dramatically and its obvious we can't give her oxcytocin now. I just hope the 1 puppy we have will be ok since she got chilled during all the excitement. Tula was the #1 priority at the time but I am warming the pup and she is nursing well now.
