Pet dogs must be loved by many people. They are loyal, active and can interact well with their owners. However, if you want to raise a good pet dog, you need to master a lot of basic breeding knowledge. For example, when a puppy is born, what are the symptoms before the dog is born? What are the symptoms before the dog is born? And does the dog have any symptoms before giving birth? Let’s take a look.
What symptoms do dogs have before giving birth?
Usually the expected date of delivery of a dog is about 2 months, usually about 57 to 62 days. But every dog is different, and the due date may be sooner or later. However, there will be some symptoms before the puppy is born. Usually two days before the puppy is born, we will find that a little milk can be squeezed out of the nipple, the labia skin folds will become flat, the skin will be a little red, the vaginal mucosa will be flushed, and the pelvic ligaments will become looser a few days before delivery. One or two days before the birth of a dog, most dogs will lose their appetite, and a small number of dogs will even go on a hunger strike.
Within 3-10 hours before delivery, dogs will begin to experience labor pains and tension, they will moan with their mouths open, and they will urinate more frequently. The vulva will be more swollen and white mucus will flow out. These are actually symptoms before delivery. Some dogs with good maternal instincts will behave like nesting, so we can prepare some clothes in advance.
If you find your dog lying on the ground and starting to have contractions or shortness of breath, it means that your dog is about to give birth. Generally, dogs do not need our help when giving birth. But if the dog still does not see the puppy being born after two hours of contractions, then the dog needs to be taken to the hospital for examination to avoid stillbirth.
Okay, the above is all about the symptoms of puppies before giving birth. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
