Canine Reproduction and Whelping
and
Puppy Intensive Care
-
by
Myra Savant Harris
-
Myra Savant-Harris
is a Registered Nurse and has many years of work in
the areas of labour/delivery and neonatal intensive
care. When Myra started breeding Cavaliers, at her
kennel
Garden Gate
Cavaliers, there were no resourses on how to "get
bitches in whelp, keep them in whelp, deliver
puppies safely and keep them alive."
-
So, Myra researched the area and wrote a book;
Canine Reproduction and Whelping.
Then she wrote another book;
Puppy Intensive Care.
Now Myra travels all across the United States and
Canada giving seminars to breeders who need to
learn how to keep their breeding bitches and dogs
reproductively healthy and keep their puppies
alive.
-
I strongly urge all dog clubs to seriously consider
inviting Myra to give her seminar for your
membership. Her costs are extremely low and the
information you will learn will save the lives of
your bitches and puppies!
