Is this normal for a pregnant dog? Please answer this time.?

Question

My miniature dachshund is due in 22 more days. Her female "area" is swollen a little bit. She is not panting or trying to make a den. She hasn't lost interest of food. Could it be possible that she is already getting ready to pass the puppies?

I can feel the puppies hearbeats and they move a lot so I know they aren't dead. Anyone have any suggestions?

Answer 1

Its normal my dog just had puppies and hers was like that when she was like a month ready to have them. She will be okay.

Answer 2

well that are usual signs just before birth, but its not possible that she is gonna birt this early.

i hope ur dog doesn't have p rebirth distress. my neighbor dog had  a post burth distress and her hormones were all disturbed, and she ripped her hair around the till until the blood came out, all that coz of the itch.then the vet had to give her some serious medicine trough needle and puppy's are goona probably die coz they dont stand this cure

Answer 3

She's not ready. Swollen doesn't mean anything.

Answer 4

3 weeks early is a bit too early ..the v***a does swell when she is getting near ...from 59 -63 days is the usual time ..watch out for whining, and ripping up her bed, scraping the carpet and nesting ...sometimes they get diarrhoea the day before .. mine always do ..

If you are worried ..please seek professional vetinary advise ... I am not a vet ..
