HELP!! Pregnant dog acting weird!?!?
I came home for the weekend to visit my mother, and she has a mutt named Lady that is about the size of a golden retriver. She is WAY BIG on the verge of bursting with puppies. The last time was her first litter about 18 months ago, she had NINE Puppies [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] She is only about 3 1/2 years old this is her 2nd litter.
Tonight she has taken her Queen size comforter that is usally folded to 1/4 the size and has started to shread the hell out of it, maked a big pile of polyester on the floor and is laying in the middle of it panting up a storm, my mother keeps her house at 70degrees year round, No More, No Less. Is this the natural instinct of Nesting? How long away do you estimate these puppies are? I have a friend that lives on the same street as my mother's house that works at the vet's office but she is at the movies now, and has the Cell Phone off. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] Are puppies only moments away? I am so nervous, and my dog is pissed because he is in the garage. Please Help with any advice! |

2+2 is certainly the first place I'd go with this question.

get a phone book/411 and locate the nearest late night vet. i know nothing about dogs or giving birth but my instinct would be that she is not far from birthing these puppies.

I think dogs have been doing this for a while now pretty much on their own. If the puppies are coming out and she's not in pain, let 'em come.

Dogs have been doing this for millions of year so I don't know what you're so nervous about. It's not like you're the father.
Uh, you're not, right? |

Re: HELP!! Pregnant dog acting weird!?!?
gestation period is 60 days. good to know
as for shredding blankets and nesting, hell some dogs just do that all the time, pregnant or not. now to deal with the puppies, you better have a pillow case, a brick, and a nearby pond. |
