From my point of view, this is more of a sadness rant than a pissed-off rant, because this isn't really MY problem, but I might as well.
I have two dogs. A male Shitzu, about three years old, and a female Maltese, about two and a half.
In the past year and a half, she has had three litters (YES, THREE LITTERS, THE FIRST WHEN SHE WAS ONE YEAR OLD) and 14 puppies within those litters.
The first one went well-four puppies, all healthy. However, soon after selling the first puppy, it died. Shame.
My sister (who is the rightful owner of the dogs) has told my mother and I that if Spencer (the male) attempts to have sex with Princess (the female, obv) we're going to have him neutered. Of course, Spencer, being the freak that he is, DID try it again. It didn't help that my sister was freshly fired from her job at that time either, meaning we didn't have the money to get Spencer fixed.
Anyways, she has the second litter. Four puppies, again. However, this time, upon trying to feed them, we had a strange incident.
Now, one thing you'll want to know is that Princess is a very small dog. Very thin, not too healthy. (It's because Spencer, being the pig that he is, eats all of her food. She doesn't eat much, and he eats more than everyone else in our house. If you feed him, he likes you. If you don't, he hates your living guts. What a joke. >>)
So, small dog, not very healthy, trying to feed four puppies. During the first litter, she was just a bit weak, but during the second, she actually had a bit of seizure. We sent her to the hospital, she was all right, so she fed them again, and we didn't have a problem.
However, then it started happening again, but this time it was worse. Spencer was absoutely crazy. Every time he even saw her tail, he'd be there humping her. It was...gross. (We even had one incident where we tied a pair of underwear to him, and we actually let him in. The minute he got in the room, he spotted Princess and dashed like a horny madman, humping her. It was pretty funny to watch Princess just getting that "OMG PERVERT!" look on her face, and Spencer going "Dude, wtf, hump!")
However, by that time, it was too late-she was already pregnant. A few weeks later, she had her third litter-but this time it was SIX puppies. We were kind of worried about the puppies, since the first litter produced a puppy that died soon after its sale, and the second litter gave Princess seizures.
Of course, the worst of both worlds was about to hit us.
Princess started feeding them at he start, but she had a seizure. The vet said we should feed them with Princess, but that didn't work-she had ANOTHER seizure.
And plus, to make it worse, ALL OF THE PUPPIES DIED. Within the span of a week, too. ='( (The last one died last night. Poor thing, it looked so sad to see a cute, innocent little puppy dead like that. Nearly broke my heart.)
We think it was because of the milk, so my sister's going to consult the vet on this. We're considering a sue, but I don't know-I may not be an expert on this, but can't you lose a ton of money if the sue ain't successful?
Well, that was a sad week for me. =(
