Great read

Great read
It was a great read. But wasn't really needed to have puppies. The mother dog does most of the work. I made a whelping box and that came from the book and turned out great thanks to the book. But at the end of the day, the supplies weren't all needed and I was glad that decided not to buy over half the things it was telling me to buy. Made the box and a heated blanket and used comforter and some white rags and that was it.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BREEDER'S TOOL! I never whelp without it!
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2016

I love this and all of Myra Savant Harris' books. I never whelp without them! And have them on hand for review and quick look up even once labor is underway. I like to tab with post-its and highlite parts I feel are important for what I might experience or can't remember well when I'm stressed in the midst. This book greatly increases your chances of saving a newborn puppy in distress. (There is no greater heartbreak than a lost pup! It's heartwrenching.) This book teaches so much. For example, it tells about how and why a pup rejected by its mother is not as good as dead and/or not otherwise healthy! Far from it! It is very matter of fact, practical and step by step, covering a variety of scenarios. It also explains amongst many other things how to administer oxygen. Although I do not use oxygen (so far), I still found that section interesting and education for a time when I might go that route. Regardless, there is plenty of other content to help you survive the gravest of pup-mergencies. Also, reading Myra's books greatly enhances confidence which makes the owner and the mama more relaxed throughout. This book helps you feel ready for just about anything. It is not meant to be veterinary advice or replace veterinary care, but rather helps you know what you can handle on your own, avoiding needless vet trip, and helps save pups when it is impossible to get to a vet on time. I could go on and on. I swear by Myra's books. P.S. For the commenter who said there's did not come with a dvd, I would suggest contact Myra Savant Harris (she's on Facebook) and seeing what can be done. Also Myra has her own website and you can order through that instead of Amazon, and then if you're not satisfied you can deal directly with her. http://www.myrasavantharris.com/

This book and dvd are great! I learned so much. I have been through having puppies before and thought i knew a lot but i had soo much more to learn. This book is so informative, easy to read and to understand. Once i stared reading i didn't want to put it down! This is a must have for any breeder or anyone expecting puppies. I have been through losing puppies and that was so hard. I feel much more informed and confident now that i have this book! Wish i had this years ago. You will not be disappointed if you order. Thank you Myra!

Planning to deliver my first litter, I purchased this book to prepare myself. Tons of helpful info. I don't think I would have saved all the puppies if it weren't for the info in this book. It's a must read for dog owners delivering their litters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly Good Book!
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2007

The lady that wrote this is an RN that has helped countless women deliver babies. She has since become a dog breeder and has now helped save lots of puppies. She not only tells you what equipment you need but will actually sell it to you herself for what I think is a pretty fair price. She even gives you her e-mail address so you can send her questions through her e-mail. This book comes with a DVD that brings to life what she teaches you how to do in the book. All in all this is the only book that has ever made me feel like I will know what to do when I have a crisis with newborn puppies. In the book this lady says you can reduce your mortality rate by 20%! That's a lot! She says the average amount of puppies that die in infancy is 30% and that you can get it down to 10%. This book is so inexpensive that I think you can't afford to NOT buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Need to have book for the emergency puppy situation before that emergency happens
Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2015

If you order the kindle version you obviously do not get the DVD that comes with the paperback book. But the book is clearly written so that with some thought and care you can follow the written instruction, pictures and diagrams without the DVD. If you need more visual input to learn new things then definetly get the book with DVD. It is the book to have if you live far from DVM care and don't want to find yourself panicking with a newborn pup having difficulties. The building of an incubator for a struggling pup is enough of a reason to buy the book in itself.

Even after breeding dogs for 25 years there’s always something to learn. No waffle just practical information. Cd is a very good idea for those unsure of tube feeding or sub cut injections. Even if you save one puppy it’s worth the buy. 👍🏻

5.0 out of 5 stars I didn't expect to needed, but was glad I had read it!
Reviewed in Canada on February 13, 2017

I had just gone through the book when the mother dog went into crisis early and needed an emergency c-section and I ended up needing a warming box and to know how to tube feed my puppies. The book also had a DVD that reviewed the information and that was helpful too. The puppy gagged a lot more than I expected when attempting tube feeding, and the first time it was nerve racking, fearing I might kill the puppy by getting the tube in the wrong place, but it got easier. The book goes into oxygen and many other things that long term breeders I spoke to have never ever used. I had most of the equipment she recommeneded and was ready for the 9 puppies when they came and I had to take manage puppy care for 3 days straight until mom was finally ready to start taking over, but she was ill and needed to be watched closely. I had to suppliment feed as well and weigh them daily as she teaches. I never lost a puppy, but it was hard work and I referenced the book often. The book has info you will likely never use - my vet said he has practiced 52 year and never did sub Q injections for dehydration. He says no one at this clinic does this so he didn't want me doing it. Tube feeding was enough.
