Question: Delivering Your Own Puppies
“My Irish Setter is going to have puppies. I’ve heard that Irish Setters have many puppies and that they die easily. I would like to deliver these puppies at my home but with this risk should I take her to the veterinarian when she is ready to give birth?”
Answer:
If you have never had the experience or training with assisting the birth of puppies then it is highly recommended that you obtain the services of a veterinarian. This insures the highest safety and birth conditions of not only your pregnant Irish Setter, but for her puppies as well.
