Question
Hello Becky,

My dauchshund I guess, is in labor.  she passed a sack with clear liquid in it . although I pulled it on out.  she has been passing a clear liquid for the pas 2 days.  do not know what to do.

               thanks cathy

Answer
Cathy,
You need to call a Vet today.  After passing the first clear sack, she should have given birth quickly afterwards.  The mother may be in trouble. There could be a puppy stuck in the birth canal.  Please call your VET asap, because you don't want to lose the whole litter. I don't mean to frighten you, but you really need help with this.

Good luck and God bless,
Becky
