Caring for a Dog and Her Puppies?

My Chihuahua had her 2nd litter of puppies 2 weeks ago. She is acting like she doesn't feel well the last few days. She is acting more tired then she has been and wants to be cuddled a lot more then usual. She also has been having a little shortness of breath. She didn't act like this with her 1st litter, she almost never left them for more then a few minutes. I took her to the vet and he looked her over and said she was fine and that this is normal. Is this normal? Should I take her to a new vet?

Yes! This dog may have an unborn puppy or some placenta left behind inside of her, which is decaying and making her sick. A vet needs to do a more thorough examination, and take care of this before she becomes too sick to help. I speak from experience. If this is not the answer, then something else is wrong, and you need a good vet to figure it out. Don't wait, take her now.

Please stop breeding this dog, as she may not be able to keep having pups without problems, and there are too many homeless dogs as it is.
