oh poor thing! be prepared to have to have a c-section done hon. a pug might be small, but compared to a Chihuahua it's quiet large. those babies might be too big for momma to have naturally.
take her to the vet and have an X-ray done to see how many she has, when she might be due, and whether or not surgery will be needed due to their size.
THEN take your pug and have him neutered so this doesn't happen again.

I'd take her to the vet. He can xray the pups and estimate the head size compared to the mom's ability to pass heads that size thru. It's a rough estimate but sometimes helpful to know ahead of time there is no way and you will need a csection.
When she is in labor, watch closely for pushing. Small dogs are sometimes difficult to know when they are actually pushing vs contracting. An hour of pushing for a puppy is way long enough in this case. Read up on whelping so you know every sign of an impending problem. With this mix, I'd run to the vet if anything does not seem to be going exactly as it's supposed to. Be sure you know the location of the nearest ER vet and how to get there quickly. Might want to check ahead of time the cost for emergency csection. Here they start at about $1000.00 at the ER vet and go up depending on the situation.
You know you may loose your girl trying to birth the pups, right?

She will probably need a C-section to have these pups as Pugs are a lot bigger than Chi's are. Get him neutered and her spayed (after pups are born) and you won't have any more. Some vets will, if they have to do a C-section, spay the female at the same time. Maybe yours will too.

Take your Chihuahua to the vet and have a conversation about what the best thing to do is.

Your girl will likely have issues birthing the pups since the father is so much bigger and is a brachycephalic (bigheaded) breed.. so a c-section will most likely be necessary.

You can avoid the c-section, save some money and just have her spayed now... which will abort the pups.

If you opt to continue the pregnancy and c-section her when the pups are born you can have her spayed at that time.

Realize that she may not be able or willing to nurse pups after a c-section and you will need to be there to bottlefeed and potty the puppies every two hours.

I agree with just about everyone else. Save up the money it is going to take to have a C-section and her insides will probably be ruined from it so have her fixed at the same time as the c-section. It is easier to get the pups out quickly and you won't have problems later with unwanted pregnancies or planned troublesome pregnancies. Another litter later will have to be taken C-section also.

Hi Vanessa.
I'd take her to a vet to see if her opening will be big enough to have the babies out.
Good luck to you all!

There's not a whole lot anyone can do to help you now. You should take her to the vet.

There's nothing you can do know, but I'm sure you can sell them people love mutts like cocker poo's or labberdoodels. But thanks for not bring another poodle mix in to the world, I dont know how ever thought it was a good idea to mix a poodel with a normal dog but they should be slaped!!!

Better consult with your vet and plan for a c-section.
