Pictures of Salisbury's puppies and an update on her condition!
Salisbury had her spay done as she was having issues with temperature swings and was on oral antibiotices for infection. During her spay, it was discovered that her uterus had ruptured and had some leakage into her. She went home and seemed better but then her temperature dropped again and shock was suspected. She was anemic and spent the night at the Emergency clinic for aggressive IV antibiotic treatment. In the meantime, see who served as a surrogate mom to her pups while her foster mom and dad did the feeding and cleaning!
I haven't talked to our vet yet about all the details of Salisbury's visit there, but the vet is suppose to calling me now that I am home from work.
Salisbury was very clingy to Mike once they got to our vet:) And once she was home, she went straight in and nursed her puppies. She is still laying in with them now. She did take a drink for foster dad and as soon as she is done nursing, I will offer something to eat.
I pray that we have finally rounded the bend and Salisbury is on the road to recovery.

CP's Salisbury's puppies have names! Baby Patterson needs your prayers

Staying with the North Carolina theme, I have named the puppies after famous people born in North Carolina. There were other that I would have loved to include, but their names had been used already:)
Girls
Harriet.... (Harriet Ann Jacobs-activist and journalist 1813-1897) birth wgt 5 3/8, now 6 1/4
Julianne.... (Julianne Moore-actress 1960-) birth wgt 5 5/8 now 6 3/8
Mabley ....(Moms Mabley-comedian 1893-1975) birth wgt 4 1/4 now 5 1/4
Simone.... (Nina Simone-civil rights activist, pianist, singer, journalist 1933-2003)
birth wgt ? now 5 1/2
Boys
Dodd.... (William Edward Dodd-historian, diplomat 1869-1940) birth wgt 7 1/8 now 7 7/8
Cosell.... (Howard Cosell-talk show host, new anchor 1918-1995) birth wgt 5 1/8 now 6 1/8
McKissick.... (Floyd McKissick-civil rgts activist, legal prof 1922-1991) birth wgt 5 5/8 now 6 1/8
Patterson.... (Floyd Patterson-boxer 1935-2006) birth wgt 4 1/4 now 4
Hiram.... (Hiram R. Revels- US representative, minister 1822-1901) at the Rainbow Bridge
The names are matched with weights and updates. I know I have been slow with this, but it has been pretty busy around here, since we were not expecting puppies so soon.
Salisbury even beat Contralto, who was here just 24 hours before whelping. Salisbury's got the record at 16 1/2 hours. I don't think I care to have anyone beat this:)
Salisbury Puppy Colors and Weights and update
Simone was born at the vet and I do not have her birth weight. 4 Girls are listed first and then the 4 boys. As you can see little Patterson is not doing well. He is the weakest of the puppies and we have been staying in and holding up to nurse, but it doesn't seem to be helping, do I will be tubing him, hoping this will give him the jump start he needs. Mama Salisbury is eating and drinking well. She is running a fever due to the problems she had. She is on an antibiotic and my vet is aware. We are keeping a close eye on both her and Patterson right now. The other puppies all seemed to be active and doing well. They can be quite noisy too. Especially little Mabley. She complains the whole time she nurses.
