Question

My dog is pregnant and she is 58 days today. She has bever had the hiccups but the last to days she has been getting them is that normal in a pregnant dog? does that mean she is getting close?

Answer 1

hiccoughs is normal is any dog preggers or not, i can't remember if my dog had them when she was pregnant, but i knew she was due to give birth very soon when i found her outside digging a hole under a hedge a midnight. She had them the next afternoon in my bedroom, i left her to decide where she wanted to have them and covered the floor with towels. I also found when she had pushed one out, she would clean it a little then get up and walk around to get more comfortable with the pup still attached being dragged around the floor, so i would pick it up and follow her closely till she settled again to finish cleaning it and chew the cord. Your dog will probably have them in the evening as i found that everything that happened that might require a vet happened when the vet was in bed, but if i needed him i woke him.

OMG no that means she is gonna die. She is really suffering now. You should just get her put to sleep... Then she wont have to go through all the pain.

Sorry about your loss :(
