Well, she saw them tied, so...

And I imagine she was more careful with her dog than the breeder was!

my pregnant min pins belly is very hard, she has been clingy this morning, she won't eat, has been very sleepy today and has discharge. Is she going into labor? Should I put her in her whelping box? Right now she is in her bed under my chair as i work.

Is your friend there, the experienced breeder? I have never had a bitch have visible contractions, refuse to eat, or be sleepy, before having any pups, when things were going well. Glad to hear it's clear discharge- are you sure you're seeing contractions and not just her trying to get comfortable, tensing, releasing voluntarily as opposed to involuntarily? Clear discharge (only a little) is the mucus plug we talked about earlier. Keep taking her temperature and don't hesitate to go to the vet for an ultrasound to check fetal heartrates.

Put the bed in a closet and put the whelping box in its place or she will have them in HER bed not that other place. 

 

You will see her start to push that is the Real labor, before that she will have many small muscle tightenings this go for several hours.

I don't know I can't see her. What do you see, is she having muscle contractions, even small ones like she is stretching in her sleep.

 

The thing is she will want to have them in the most comfortable safe spot you need to make sure that it is the whelping box, thus remove her bed.

I have one female that wanted me near by. Now there was no way to move her whelping box around nor could I stay with her 24-30 hours.

 

I let her start heavy labor then we moved to her box and I stayed with her.

Many ways and ideas.  Some mothers want to be alone in a dark safe spot, some like to dig a hole and really hide.

Her tummy keeps getting tense and then it relaxes.

SUPER important question- what color is the discharge? If clear, or like her water broke, super- you're in labor! If green or bloody, get to a vet NOW. What you're describing are contractions but you should see puppies shortly after contractions start (hard contractions that you can see, anyway). I don't want to write a bunch you won't understand in a time when every minute counts, but please answer about the discharge.

The discharge is clear. She has not started going into stage 2 labor yet but I think she will tonight.

 

 


by Stellaminpin7 on 23 August 2017 - 18:08

She still hasn't had them! I might take her to the vet if she doesn't start pushing by tomorrow. I think they might of not been contractions, just the pups moving around.

by Jenni78 on 23 August 2017 - 19:08

I'd get an ultrasound or at least have a vet examine her. I am not trying to sound rude, but you don't have any idea what you're looking at, and if pups are dying, she can become septic and die also. If you don't know the difference between a contraction and pups moving, I'd err on the safe side and check fetal heart rates.

Now, if you have researched a lot since you posted and now you are pretty sure those movements were puppies moving, then the clear discharge is mucus plug and you might have another day or two. But, again, if I were a novice at this, I'd be careful. Feel free to post a video of her, CLEAR and bright, showing her behavior (panting, etc.) and her belly.

Let's go back to the number one question  What day was she bred.


by Stellaminpin7 on 24 August 2017 - 17:08

She was bred June 12

by cbaird on 24 August 2017 - 18:08

If you are positive that she wasn't bred later than that it has been over 70 days and you need to get to the vet with your dog! That is way to long past when she should be due.

If you are really sure that is the date then yes a Vet is needed.  When he did the ultra sound before did the Vet give you an approx due date.
