The timing of pregnancy for the average dog is 63 days. You should start taking the temperature of your dog around day 56 from the first breeding attempt. To do this, at least once in the morning and again during the night. The normal temperature is 100-102 degrees. Once this figure falls to about 98 degrees, your dog within 24 hours of whelping her puppies. We suggest having your pregnant dog sleeping in farrowing or Other preferred area for about a week before her due date. This will be used to being there if it is not difficult when the time comes. It is also useful if it offers the middle of the night.

Labor Stage I

When she reached this stage, your dog will probably stop eating in the final 24 hours before calving range. She wants you close and you may take anywhere. The dam experienced may stay in the whelping box, knowing their pups are about to be born. An accumulation of mucus may be visible on the vulva area. It will move and start to pant, trying to get comfortable contractions that begin to take off. This stage can last several hours.

Labor Stage II

Your dog will be panting heavier today, may show a widening / nesting behavior in search of a place to put down, licking her vulva frequently, and roll or come and go. It will also begin to tremble and will start to have mild contractions. This step is much faster than the first, unless complications arise.

Labor Stage III

Your dog will show extreme thrill now. Her contractions will be harder and more frequent. It will be very noticeable. As she approaches foaling, you should be able to see a big dump before this liquid in a first puppy. This could be the rupture of water or puppy its first cervical mucus plug passage. During contractions many dogs remain silent, but it is not uncommon for them to make grunting sounds as they occur. When your dog is ready to pug she sat down, squatting or lying on its side. That's when the first puppy is moving into the birth canal and it is ready at present. You will notice a clear bag that the puppy is locked in. It may be visible for up to one hour before coming all the way out, projecting further with each contraction (This varies by race). This bag May rupture as it passes or the puppy and the placenta may be pushed out with the dog is confined. Several times, the puppy comes out and the placenta remains until further contractions. Nevertheless, it is essential to remove the pocket and clear the airways of the newborn of any fluids to avoid injury!

OK, so the first puppy is born. What now?
