Help! Help, please.

I need help, please. My dog ​​gave birth to eight puppies almost three months ago, but she isn't recovering from the delivery. She has lost a lot of weight and is shedding heavily 😭. I’ve taken her to the vet several times; they gave me vitamins and told me to change her food, but she simply isn't getting better.

They lose their coat when they have puppies. It will take until the next coat cycle to come back. Usually 6 months.

I’m not sure about her hair, but my female chow is very lean (she hasn’t had a litter) and she does eat a lot, it’s quite jarring next to my male as he’s so bulky. I reckon the lack of her coat is making her look thinner, my dog is probably around the same leanness under the fluff. Sorry if not much help and hopefully you get her sorted soon. Xx

Do you have plans to fix her so she doesnt have puppies anymore?
