Whelping Kit XS Clamps Cord Scissors Life Drops Aspirator Iodine Thermometer

Contents:

• • 1 x Sterile Stainless Steel Umbilical Cord Scissors - Cutting cord should you need to. These scissors are not designed to cut straight through the cord, they are designed to rip through it and to do this you need to apply some tension on the cord. By ripping the cells in the cord apart rather than cutting through them the theory is that this helps prevent infection.
  • 1 x Sterile Stainless Steel forceps - Clamping of the cord before cutting should it be required. We find these useful if our girl has a retained placenta but puppy has been born with cord attached to placenta so we clamp close to mum so we can cut the cord and to stop placenta going further inside.
  • 1 x 2oz Sterile Bulb aspirator - Suck out fluid from puppy nose and throat.
  • 3 x XS Reusable Red cord clamps - No Longer Blue
  • 1 x 30ml Life Drops Spray - I would never be without this in my kit, used for puppies straight after birth when struggling to breath
  • 2 x 5 Small cotton wool balls - applying iodine or toileting if needing to if mum does not do it.
  • 1 x Free Iodine (10ml) - Put on cords to prevent infection.
  • 1 x Medical Grade Digital Thermometer - About one week prior to the dam′s due date, you will want to begin taking her temperature. when the birth of the litter draws near, her temperature will drop. To take the dam′s temperature you will need Lubricating Gel, and a sterile alcohol pad (alcohol and cotton balls work also). Thoroughly clean the thermometer with the alcohol pad (or alcohol on a cotton ball) and apply a dab of Lube to the tip. Insert the thermometer angle to the side and wait for the reading. Take and record the dam′s temperature twice daily from here on out. The dam′s temperature will drop down to about 1 degree of normal temp approximately 12-­24 hours prior to whelping. This will help you to determine if you need to stick around for a long night of puppy whelping, or if you can leave the house.
  • 4 x Lubricating Sachets - Inspecting mum, and to put on thermometer for taking temp.
  • 6 x Sterile Alcohol wipes, cleaning thermometer, scissors, forceps etc
  • 1 x Whelping leaflet guide
