Behaviors of dogs before giving birth

1. Usually, the day before a dog gives birth, there are some symptoms, such as restlessness, a drop in body temperature of about 1 degree Celsius, digging and nesting, and starting to search for a quiet place to give birth.

2. If a dog is already groaning, panting, and breathing rapidly, it indicates that the dog is in severe pain. These painful reactions before giving birth are usually symptoms of imminent delivery.

3. You may also observe the discharge of secretions from the dog's reproductive organs, which are mostly watery fluid caused by the rupture of amniotic fluid, and there may also be the discharge of bloody secretions.

Things to note after a dog gives birth

1. Wipe the dog's dirty parts, especially the genital area, with warm water. Clean the breasts and surroundings with warm water, and let the puppies get close to the mother's breasts. The mother will instinctively lick the puppies' bodies, and the puppies will suckle.

2. After giving birth, try to provide a quiet and comfortable environment for the mother dog. This is when the mother dog's maternal instincts are the strongest. Do not let strangers or other animals approach to avoid being bitten.

3. Provide the mother dog with high-calorie, high-protein, high-fat, and calcium-rich food, such as puppy food. Adding a small amount of calcium powder and feeding 3-4 meals a day is a good choice.
