QuestionMY CHOCOLATE LAB HAD A LITTER ON 10/4/09. SHE HAD 9 PUPS AND ALL WHERE HEALTHY. SHE GOT TIED AGAIN ON 2/21/10 BY ACCIDENT. IS IT TRUE SHE COULD DIE DURING WHELPING OF THIS LITTER?
AnswerHi Dana
Well if she choked on a bone during labor, she might die. Or if a bus ran into the side of the house, or even if a meteor hit. But just from whelping the litter.... possible but not very probable.
Breeding back to back is okay if the female is in top physical and mental health. After she has this litter make sure she sits for at least a year or more, otherwise you really will have complications.
Good luck
