That is really upsetting that they wouldnt even try to help!
We have some friends who had a bulldog that was in labor & having a hard time of it. It's common for bulldogs to have to have C-Sections because of their narrow hips. They took her to the vet & were told, yes, she needs immediate help or she & the pups will die, but the vet is leaving on vacation this morning, so there is nothing we can do. You need to take her to another vet. I just dont understand how people can do things like that! It makes me mad & breaks my heart at the same time.
