re: Vet Board: Puppy in Litter Suddenly Died

Doesn't necessarily mean that there will be problems with the whole litter. I got a Sheltie puppy a few years ago that died suddenly after I had her for a couple of weeks, we think it was heart defect. I don't think any of the other puppies in the litter had any issues. We were offered another, but we didn't take it just because we weren't ready.
