We are on the last instructions, it's getting soon
WEEK Eight | - The pups have fur and are now crowded in the uterus. You may notice a lot of activity as they get into position for the coming birth.
- Your bitch may begin digging the bedding in the whelping box. This is natural "nesting" behavior.
- Allow your bitch to feed freely as she is able.
|
WEEK Eight to Nine | - The pups are ready for birth, and may be quite still as they rest in preparation for the marathon to come.
- Your dog may appear uncomfortable and restless or anxious.
- Time to begin taking rectal temperature readings 12 hours apart. Normal temperature is 100 to 101 F; a drop down near 97 F held for two consecutive readings indicates labor will begin within 24 hours.
