This is our pretty 4 1/2 year old chocolate lab, Koda. We got her just as Cooper was starting to crawl. She is so good with the boys...lets them do just about anything to her. Anyway, in May we bred her to a black lab hoping to get some good puppies we could sell and add some extra money to the boys' college funds. Yesterday she was having some contractions... which lasted all day...by evening she was fine and had even eaten her food. This morning she was doing the same thing...and by then we knew something wasn't quite right. The vet had told us that once the contractions started we should see puppies within about 1-2 hours. We were working on close to 24 hours! Heath called a different vet (not too happy with the one we were using) and they did an xray. Usually labs have litters of 8-10 puppies...Koda only had one and it was way to big to come out on its own so the vet did an emergency C-section this morning. They got the puppy out but it had died a couple days ago. I feel so bad for her. I have never been a big dog lover but we have had her just as long as our boys...so she is one of our kids. This picture is of her today. She seems a little drugged and I think she knows something is missing. Sorry girl!

oh, so sad!! It is amazing how much you don't even like dogs and your heart breaks when they are hurt. Sorry it didn't work so good.
Poor girl. That's really sad.
I can't believe Coop likes Mama Mia! Kaden likes ABBA too though. Poor Koda! That is such a sad story!
Sorry to hear about Koda. Hope she gets feeling better soon.
Poor Koda! I'm so sorry to hear about that.
