Now here's the unusual part: the two female dogs are sharing all the mothering responsibilities, cleaning, watching out for, and nursing the pups. That's right, the old female is lactating,...

Vet put my dog on Theophyline. She did well for a couple of days, less panting, less drinking, but she drank so much less that she wasn't peeing, she'd go 9 hours without urinating which is unusual.
