My I yr old pit bull just had her first litter on Nov 5, 06. She had eight total, all alive and healthy. Four days later one of the puppies had died, then another one the next day, and one more the same night, and the last one the day after that. She was very upset and kept getting up to look for them. Soon after we noticed that her teats in the back were very swollen, and she wasn't procing milk. So I tried giving her a long very warm (NOT burning hot) bath, then I tried to massage the swollen teats. She didn't really seam all that confortable but she let me do it any way. The milk that came out when I did that, had a very strong odor to it and was kind of thick and oily. We have since been bottle feeding the rest of the puppies and they got chubbier, but now she won't stay by them or try to clean them. What, if anything, can I do for her???
