DELUXE PRO CANINE WHELPING KIT (for up to 8 puppies)

by Canine Breeding Innovations

Everything You Need To Deliver a Litter of Puppies

Included in the Canine Breeding Innovations Whelping Kit:

Digital thermometer to monitor mother’s temperature for predicting the whelp. This is an extremely accurate method when done correctly. Instructions and chart for tracking are included. Also, mother’s temperature should be taken daily for several weeks after delivery to give you a heads up if mom develops a life-threatening infection.

Tail wrap for dogs with long tails to protect from draining fluids. Five yards included – change when cleaning up mom after delivery and during the next day or two following the whelp as it becomes soiled. No tail? Save wrap for future bandaging needs.

Dual-headed stethoscope for monitoring mother’s heartbeat and for listening to baby heartbeats during the last week or two prior to birth. The stethoscope is also used to detect lung congestion in babies and to monitor mother’s heart and lungs. (asst. colors)

Pivoting LED head lamp with headband. This is one of the most important pieces of equipment in your whelping kit. It leaves your hands free to assist mother and baby during critical moments. What you look at is what you see – you will not be working in your own shadow or in a dark hole, and you won’t have to hold a flashlight in your teeth. (asst. colors)

Eight Velcro ID Bands to properly identify puppies for weighing and making sure everyone eats properly.

Eight extra-absorbent disposable pads to put under mom – fold up and throw away after each puppy is delivered and cleaned up and placenta is accounted for.

Eight pair of disposable exam gloves -- throw away after each delivery and put on a new pair when frequent contractions indicate another pup is on the way. Also use to check mom for baby in birth canal.

Eight individual, receiving cloths to grip and dry each puppy as it is born. Made of soft and absorbent terry.

Aspiration bulb to suction mucous from puppy’s airway (mouth, nose, and throat).

Stainless steel locking hemostats to clamp umbilical cord an inch away from puppy while you tie it and cut off excess. (Individually packaged)

Surgical scissors with stainless steel blades with blunt tips to cut umbilical cord one inch beyond the tie. (Individually packaged)

Package of unwaxed dental floss to tie off umbilical cords.

Eight individually sealed packets of Iodine prep pads to put on umbilical cords after cutting and every day until tied end of the cord dries and breaks off. Don’t skip or delay this step. The cut umbilicus is a major entry route of infection in newborn puppies.

Stuck Puppy Pack includes a urethral tube, lubricant, catheter tip syringe, receiving cloth, disposable absorbent pad, packaged in a separate bag to be used if needed for Stuck Puppy Syndrome – a puppy that is “right there” but won’t come out. Instructions and tips for how to handle this problem are included.

Specially-formulated replacement milk by Esbilac for weak or fading puppies to boost their energy long enough to hopefully get them to suckle from the mother, which in turn gives them mother’s antibodies, as well as nutrition and stamina they need to keep up with their littermates in their battle for the milk faucets. It can also be used to tube feed an underdeveloped puppy.

Puppy feeding bottle with bottle brush and five latex nipples to supplement puppies who cannot compete for mother’s milk.

10ml Feeding Syringe is also included in your Deluxe Pro Whelping Kit
