Question
Foxy-my boxer-had a litter of pups  about a year ago. she had 5 pups {this was her 2nd litter} 3 days later she went back n to labor and had 1 more pup.  this pup had exploded inside of her and was deformed. ever since i have been scared to breed her again. against all my best tries she got hooked up with my male boxer{also the father of the last litter}. now 2 weeks & 3 days later i notice she has blood in her urine. i am cocerned about her health. she almost died with her last litter. i should of gotten her fixed but i have 3 kids and no extra money. is the blood in her urine a bad sign? what should I look for incase of a miss carage? PLEASE HELP ME  FOXY IS ONE OF THE FAMILY

Answer
Please take her to your vet ASAP. The pup she had 3 days later was a dead pup that wasn't delivered, and it bloated as it decayed and exploded inside her. This could have killed Foxy.

She doesn't need to be pregnant-- it's early-- the vet can do an abortion to protect her health and life.

You might call local Boxer Rescue groups and ask if they know of a vet that will do an abortion and spay her at the same time pro bono or at least, a minimal charge. There might be a vet that spays for their Rescue groups.
