This beautiful girl has such a story to share.

Dixy arrived into our care with a bilateral hernia.

We often see hernias in dogs used for breeding.

Off to the vets for spay and repair we received a call to say that Dixy was indeed pregnant and that the litter of pups had dropped into the hernias.

Pregnant with 11 pups she was in surgery for quite a while, it was touch and go for her.

The wonderful Cahir in downe vets preformed surgery and managed to repair her hernias whilst saving the pups lives.

A complicated surgery which involved each pup being placed back through the hernia and into her womb.

On 27th July Dixy gave birth to 5 beautiful babies, sadly 2 were stillborn and 1 little boy grew his wings shortly afterwards.

A quick X-ray after delivery showed that she was carrying only 5 and that some of the pups had passed and reAbsorbed.

A great mum her job is now done.

It’s her time to find that family who will love her as much as we do.

She’s around 3/4 years old, a Snchzauer. A gentle timid girl we are looking for a home with another dog, either male or female.

A quiet settled home with no younger children (10+)

A super secure garden

Dixy deserves to spend the rest of her life being loved and cherished.
