First of all, it’s worthwhile to think about the typical length of a pregnancy in canines, which is typically around nine weeks. Once you begin to realise that your dog is pregnant, it’s likely that you will be in a position to prepare for when they are going to go into labour. Hydration is one of the most important things to give your dog, particularly as they are going to need plenty of water to provide for their pups. If your bitch used to have a hearty appetite but seems to be unenthused by food now, it could be an indicator that they are about to give birth.

You will also note that they’ll be preparing to nest, and get ready to create an environment that is safe and warm for their puppies. You’ll be able to see the signs and get prepared because the dog will be doing its own instinctive preparations itself. Do be warned: Where they decide they want to settle down for the birthing may not be the most convenient of places, and they may be reluctant to change locations once this decision has been made.

If you think that the due date must be getting close, the final idea is to check their temperature on a regular basis. Should a dog have a temperature of less than 37 degrees C, you can be pretty certain that the first signs of giving birth are going to follow shortly afterwards. This is in contrast to average body temperatures of 39 degrees C in dogs. Just like with humans, the slightest change in temperature can be a huge indicator that something big is about to happen; in this case: Birth.

Ok to answer most of your questions a dog will almost never deliver her pups earlie or late they normaly ontime as the delivery day aproacher they will lose there mucas plug this is absolutely normal as is restlesness. The dog will deliver the pups on her own but always handy to have some towels and clothes ready as the mum might get verry tired and need assisting in cleaning one of the pups or even helping them to take there first breath. Do not panic couse your dog will sence you are nervouse and will make your dog panic so stay calm if your dog does need a helping hand place the pup on a towel and tear the sack open then guntly rub the pup to stimulate it it will take a breath then mum will take over. Good luck too you allx

She may start to show signs of making a nest a few days before the pups are due. As the time gets nearer she will  become restless, getting up, lying down, and changing her position frequently and she may paw and scratch at her bedding.
Loss of appetite is usually a sure sign that whelping (giving birth) is approaching.
 Milk can be expressed from the nipples near or at the time of birth in those bitches having their first litter and about 4 days prior to whelping in those bitches which have had one or more litters previously. If you are used to taking your dogs temperature it is a good indicator as it drops several degrees just before whelping. Good luck !!

Start taking her temp... When it drops below 100*, she'll almost surely start labor within the next 24 hrs. Sometimes the first sign is a slimy a discharge in any number of colors... Shockingly including blue and green.  Sometimes the first sign is when you notice she's been away from you for a little while, and you find her under your desk.. Or in your closet.. Cleaning up a pup!

My dog is 59 days along. I just checked her temp and it is 98.7. She doesn't seem restless but rather wanting my attention. She has milk in her that if I squeeze it comes out. Does any of this mean she will be going into labor soon? And she is also licking her self a lot.

Ok I have the same PROBLEM! I keep reading that she will start "nesting" when shes ready but my dog isn't like that because mom will swat her if she messes up things so I do know that when I lightly squeeze her nipples the milk turns up and its VERY white can someone help me?
