July 7, 2017 - Puppies born today severly dehydrated and glucose deficient due to Tina's intestinal blockage.  July 9, 2017 - Puppies nursed on Tina for 2 days before Tina went into surgery to release the intestinal blockage from swallowing a piece of rope toy and she passed on the table. The puppies remaining will be raised without their mother from this point forward. We are very sad at Tina's loss. The puppies remain severly dehydrated and glucose deficient despite efforts to replace their mother's milk consumption.  July 13, 2017 - Puppies continue to suck on their own and look must healthier. Weights indicate that hydration and glucose intervention is working and all puppies have gained significant weight at this time. Puppies continue to remain in incubation at 85 to 90 degrees.  MaryAnn, seems to have the dry heaves and is groaning. We anticipate that she may also have the same tummy troubles that her sister has shown, although she does not show diarrhea at this time. She also continues to eat normally. Puppies continue to be incubated at 79 to 81 degrees. Puppies have begun Panacur at .25 ml once a day in case the runny stools is parasite related. They will be on this for three days.  July 19, 2017 - All of the puppies have rallied and we no longer see diarrhea and all stools are normal. Each puppy is eating very well and sleeping a lot. They all enjoy snuggling when they are done eating and love to have their faces carressed.  August 03, 2017 - The puppies have been eating real food for four days now. They are eating raw ground beef and chicken. Today is the first day the puppies ate their food without formula mixed into it. They have begun to drink water on their own and we have now placed a water bowl in with them to drink as they are thirsty. The puppies are also pottying on their own now. They receive baths every other day, which they have grown to enjoy. Each puppy receives individual snuggle time after their bath and after feeding.  August 06, 2017 - MaryAnn had constipation for about 24 hours, but has now released her bowels and feels so much better. She ate well after that and has rehydrated and is sleeping. The other puppies seem to have come out of it and are on the mend. We will continue to monitor MaryAnn, but she is eating and going potty now, which is a huge relieve. The puppies continue to receive medication as well as added probiotics in their food.  August 10, 2017 - MaryAnn is doing better, but still not using her back legs. She receives physical therapy four times a day to strengthen her rear legs and not loose too much muscle from the weakness and pain in her joints. August 25, 2017 - MaryAnn and the Survival Gang are doing well enough that we finally set up a spot for them outside. They are now eating regularly 3 meals a day with 8 hours in between; a huge relief to our sleep schedule. ;)
