Learning with my pregnant dog........Second and Last Month of Pregnancy

Dear friends,

This article is for all of us who love our dogs and care for them. My dog is pregnant and it has been a day by day learning activity, so I decide to share with you all this experience. Suri is a beautiful and sweet West Highland White Terrier who is 32 days pregnant (probably). Those are our experience together that we want to share with you, so if your pet get pregnant we hope it is easier for you than it has been for us, living our first experience in this fascinating world of giving birth beautiful puppies:

• Her mood has already changed and she is all the time trying to attach my other dogs especially my Rottweiler. The main reason for that is because she is trying to protect her belly and her puppies because the Rottweiler is always running, jumping and playing and she gets very nervous and afraid of him.
• In this phase (first month) she can abort her babies so it is very important to monitor her and to keep her in a safe and non-stressful environment so she feels calm and secure.
• Her disposition has also changed and now she doesn’t want to play with my other dogs anymore. She stay most of time laid down by my side and when we go out for walking she gets tired and normally I have to take her in arms part of the way.
• Ultrasonography is not the right resource to learn how many puppies she has. I was anxious to see her first ultrasonography, but everything I had was the confirmation that she was around the 32th day of pregnancy of “probably” 05 puppies. Yes, probably, because images can be juxtaposed so there is no certainty. What I didn’t know was that the correct tool to show how many puppies would be the X-Ray because it would clearly show the skull of each puppy. The ultrasonography is perfect to let you know if the puppies are alive, to ear their heart beat and to see if their mobility is normal. Learn from my mistake and do not forget to ask your veterinarian about all those information together with the exam written report if your dog is pregnant. I missed this opportunity
• Her temperature is very low (around 37.4oC while my veterinarian said the normal would be around 38.5oC), so she is under constantly vigilance, with clothes and I have to take her temperature 03 times a day.
• If she drinks lots of water (above normal average) and/or have a yellow secretion coming out of her vulva, that would be risky signs and we should immediately report to her veterinarian. Thanks God it is not her case
• Although some veterinarian say that dogs do not get seasick, she has became for selective with food and I need to change flavor constantly to keep her motivated to eat

In summary, everything is OK so far and her belly can already be noticed. Take a look how cute she is taking a nap!!!

New Space Totally Dedicated to Your Pet

Dear friends,

Due to my last two weeks of full dedication to rescue and care my new dog, I have realized how important and participant of our lives our pets are and how much joy and pleasure they bring to our days with their unconditional love and bright energy. As it could not be different we decided to create a section especially dedicated to them in our blog, where you can publish a picture of your dog, with or without a text message. You can also review some tips, share your knowledge and get some insights on Fashion Pets articles. Send your pet’s picture, video, text and/or suggestions to glamorousandbright@gmail.com and it will be our pleasure to share them with our friends here!!!!

Hope to see you soon and hope you like my Westie and Rottweiller puppy below!!!

"Leave of Absence"

Dear readers,

We are so sorry we weren't able to make any publishing recently. The fact is that we were "gifted"  with a new dog, that simply appeared at our door about 15 days ago and since that day, we were fully busy trying to rescue her history, former owners, papers and so forth and so on. The formers owners decided to sell her to us and she is living here in our house but she is in cio and I have two male dogs in my home, so can you imagine? It was a full time vigilant activity to keep them properly separately and joint only when we wanted to do so.
Due to this new situation, that we did not ask for, but that simply knocked our door, we have opened our own kennel and will soon add a tab called "pets" where you will learn about our "babies".
It has been a crazy time but I do recommend for everyone to have at least one pet to care about and to be cared by. They give us lot of love, joy and meaning and there is nothing better than arriving at home and have them extremely enthusiastic only because we are back home!!!!
Adopt, buy and/or breed one and you will see your and your family's life changes!!!
Happy to be back with you all!!!!
