Pups

[Terrie 12]

Hi there my bitch is due her litter between 6 and 8 days now the thing is she is quite big if she was to go early would the pups be ok and would they all survive?

I've only ever had 1 bitch go 2days early and that was no problem,most people start to worry a bit near to the due date its only natural mate,don't let her get too hot and no strenuous exercise and you should'nt have a problem,they quite often look fit to burst,so long as the bitch has no trouble bringing the pups on the day you should be ok,there's not a lot you can do anyway so long as your date is correct when they're due just let nature take its course,atb,wirralman
