At any rate, I'm really sorry you lost her. I'll be thinking good thoughts for your next litter.
I'mm hoping it was one of those things, but as i said above, (for some reason your quote didn't get added to my reply..) I learned she was atleast a year old. I agree with what you said think back, the blood was more or less from her cleaning.

Thank you though, I'm hoping my next comes here in two to 4 days. Little girls looks plump.
