| The Birth Of A Miniature Australian Shepherd Puppy ~ Photos |
| Most often, the mother moves into different positions. One minute up, the next laying down. It is obvious that she is trying to find a comfortable position - and this process helps move the puppies into the birth canal. |
| The mother usually chews through the cord with her teeth - Too clean a cut, however, can cause bleeding from the puppy's "belly button". Generally, the chewing action from the mother crushes the cord and stops the blood flow. While accidents can sometimes happen, usually momma dogs have know how to care for their little ones. |
| You can see the puppy emerging here. It looks strange and shiny because it still has the protective, fluid-filled helps protect the baby while it is growing inside the mother's womb, and also provide protection during the birthing process.. |
| mother now, but still remains inside the membrane. This must be removed from around the puppy's mouth and nose very quickly, as the puppy will try and take a breath as soon as the umbilical cord is severed. If the membrane is not removed, the puppy can suffocate. |
| torn open and the puppy's head and upper body are now out in the open! It is able to take its first breath of air! At this point, it is sometimes a good idea to gently pick the puppy up and hold it upside down briefly, as it may have inhaled some fluid. Hanging upside down can allow any fluid to come back up - If very much fluid is inhaled into its lungs, the puppy may get pneumonia and die. |
| Ah! Mother takes a few minutes to get to know her new little one! As mother becomes familiar with her baby's scent, she licks it all over to clean and dry it. It is good to allow the puppy to begin nursing as soon as it shows interest. This causes a hormone to be released in the mother's body that makes her uterus have more contractions. This helps move the other puppies though the birth canal. |
| Notice the mother looking at her hind end? She is beginning to feel more contractions and she knows a new baby will be here soon! The process begins again... |
