A german Shepard is typically 18 months and for a dog like a Pug it's as short as 3 weeks. Hope this helps.

Usually 63 days. give or take a day. Some females have whelped normally is as few as 59 days, usually smaller dogs. Larger breeds can take as long as 66 days. But watch her carefully. After she makes her nest and hours pass without a pup, get her to a vet. Whelping can take as long as 2 hours between pups. Wait no longer then that.
