First, my girl, Tammy, is 1 year old and (get ready for it) is a Weimaraner x Collie x Afghan Hound x Ridgeback and she mated (accindetally) with my 4 year old male, Trip, a (get ready for this one, too) Dalmatian x Boxer x Irish Wolfhound x Whippet! I know there are a lot of breeds and I know it was irresponsible to go to work while my female was on heat but I had the male outside in my shed and my female inside. I don't know how they got to each other but when I got home, the male was inside the house! Anyway, they successfully mated and my female is now pregant and has been for 8-9 weeks.
I am not sure what I should do for her. I am pretty sure she has started labour but I don't know what to do. Do I butt in and help (if so, help in what way?) or do I leave her alone to do all the work (but take her to the vet if something goes wrong)? What should I have ready for the puppies? I saved up around $500 and arranged a planed c-section with my vet incase something goes wrong.
