When will my poodle have her pups ?

Question

My poodle is pregnant and I don't know exactly how far along she is ?? I was over sea's in active duty and I come home and my dog is pregnant ? I do know it happened before the 4th of july . So she should be due really soon . I have been taking her temp and for the past 5 days she has had a temp of 100.1-100.9 now today it is 98.6

Any idea's or signs I should look for ? So i know when she is in labor ?

She does not want to jump up on the couch today either ?

Answer 1

EVERY DOG HAS PUPPIES IN 63 DAYS....SO IF I CALCULATE THE NUMBER THAN I THINK THE PUPPIES WILL BE BORN AROUND  SEPTEMBER 1ST TO 3

GOOD LUCK!

Answer 2

I think she will be having them very soon. If you haven't made a welping box. Do it today. Usually the temp drops with in 24 hours before having the puppies.

When my dog had hers i calculated wrong and woke up to 3 beautiful little puppies under my bed. It has been an amazing exsperence for us. We will miss our babies. they are leaving us this weekend ;-(

Answer 3

temp will drop like that about 12 hours up to 24 before labor starts.  Is she on puppy food?  If not it's important for her and the pups:)  she may bet restless, not eating, panting, discharge, l*****g and cleaning alot, and I also would call the vet and find out who is on emergency just in case, and so they have a heads up.

Answer 4

Watch her carefully. You will see a difference in her breathing. She may try to hide somewhere to have the pups. Also, her water will break and this is usually obvious. She will most likely lie down before she starts having major contractions and this is a very noticeable thing. You will know whats going when she starts contracting.
