It's best you take the puppy to a vet to be sure there are no birth defects or any diseases. Puppies often breath rapidly even when still nursing from their mother. When their eyes are open and they can play they will also breath heavier and have several naps per day. However, the risks out-weight these factors I have mentioned so please take your puppy to the vets right away.

How do you remove fluid from the chest of a nwborn puppy?
If a pup is born weak or is ignored by its mother, your assistance can save its life. For instance, if a newborn puppy appears cold and weak with irregular or no breathing, hold it firmly and swing it up and down between your legs with its head down. This will help drain fluid from the mouth and lungs. To stimulate breathing, rub the puppy briskly with a warm towel. By blowing gently into its nose and softly pressing its chest with your fingers you can also help induce breathing. When the puppy starts breathing on its own, return it to its mother. If this doesn't work then you should immediately take the puppy to the vets. Even if you manage to get the fluid from the pups chest it's a good idea to have the vet check out the puppy.
Will the smallest puppy from the litter be unhealthy or more likely to have health problems?
It would be likely to have some health problems. As vermin "live" in the litter, it might cause the puppy probably some skin disease or any other health problems. I'd say that for the sick of those tiny animals (either they're puppies or kitties or any other animal) we should be more careful with the trash and wherever it is placed.

Do puppies breathe fast after they eat?
Breathing problems in puppies are not always serious, but they do need to be identified. Breathing problems can generally be identified by a dog taking more then 60 breaths per minute, panting that does not seem to align with activity level, or labored breathing. These could all be signs that your puppy has a breathing problem, serious or otherwise.TypesThe most common breathing problem in puppies is obstruction of the airway. This is often caused by puppies chewing on things that they shouldn't necessarily have. The result is that something may become lodged in their airway and cause them to have difficulty breathing. Other puppies may have breathing problems associated with their anatomy. Dogs with the squished or pug looking face will generally have more labored breathing after exercise. This should subside within 30 minutes after exercise.There also are viruses and bacteria that can cause breathing problems in your puppy. The Bordetella bacteria is the most common cause for kennel cough, which is most likely to strike dogs that are in groups in settings such as shows or kennels. Strep throat and infections of the airways also can cause breathing problems.It's important to take note of how long these problems last as breathing problems may also be the result of broken ribs, congestive heart failure or even abnormal growths in the airway or the lungs.SymptomsThere are different types of breathing problems and each is unique to the puppy and its environment and heredity. It's important to note that while one dog may present with coughing when he or she has tonsillitis, another may present the same way with congestive heart failure. Pay attention to these potential symptoms: --- Constant panting--- Rapid breathing of more than 60 breaths per minute--- Labored breathing--- Coughing that does not subside--- Less than 25 breaths per minute for long periods of time--- Discharge from the noseTime FrameBreathing problems in puppies will often resolve on their own, but you should keep a close eye on any puppy that is exhibiting any signs of breathing problems. A dog that suffers from breathing problems for more than 24 hours, despite behaving normally otherwise, should be seen by a veterinarian. If the puppy seems to be in pain or is non-responsive it should be taken to a vet immediately. RisksRisks associated with breathing problems are vast if they are not responded to in a timely manner. While some breathing problems will resolve on their own, serious ones need to be treated with antibiotics or through surgery if an obstruction or growth is the cause of the breathing problems. If in doubt, it's better to seek treatment.
