It really depends on the practice. I know I would call around and make sure it was a 24 hour clinic, that way someone will always be there to check in on her and take care of her.

So hard to say....kennels are all so different. I would wondering about leaving your dog at the vet's though. That might easier and safer for all involved. Each kennel is so different that it is pretty hard to comment on that here.

Where's your breeding mentor? If you are in a tough situation with the dog, your mentor should be offering to care for the dog while you are away or cannot care for her. I really have no idea what your vet will charge. I would assume that when she goes into labour, middle of the night vs. office hours, will affect your charges. I would also assume that yes, they will charge a general delivery fee along with a per puppy charge. And there is no way I will say only good things to a backyard breeder who allowed her 9 month old Chihuahua to get pregnant, is allowing her to carry the pregnancy to term, and can't care for her.

I doubt that you're going to get many answers since you've posted such a "snippy " question. You should have had the 9 month old puppy aborted and spayed.
