Being a vet tech I can say that you need to take your lil momma into the vet andlet them indue labor soon if she has not already had them. letting her go longer then the normal gestiation of 62-65 days can cause problems for both mom and babies. inducing labor Is nothing but giving her a few injections of oxytocin and a possible I.V. cath to make sure she is well hydrated and also gives a direct line into the blood stream so that if ther was any complications they an acess the blood stream fast and easily. Also good too if they have to do a c-section.

being pregnant does not continuously happen on the day of mating. Sperm can proceed to be achievable for as much as 4 days so if there wasn't an egg there waiting, an egg would be released some days later and then exchange into fertilized so a canines at sixty 4 days isn't a challenge yet. a typical being pregnant would be everywhere from fifty seven to sixty 9 days (seventy two days has been recorded), sixty 3 is merely the normally happening. you're able to take her temperature rectally two times an afternoon on a similar time. whilst her temperature drops under ninety 9 levels and keeps to be there for 2 consecutive readings then domestic canines will come interior of 24 hours. in case you notice the temperature drop for 2 readings and then start to upward push without hard work, make a vet appointment right this moment. additionally make a vet appointment for that day if there is not any hard work by Day 70. Oxytocin is often purely given as quickly as the canines is in hard work and the contractions are no longer solid sufficient to furnish the puppies. C-sections are purely carried out as quickly as the canines is previous due or problems upward push up for the period of whelping.

Go and get a c-section. I have never heard of a vet "inducing" labor. If the dog is not in labor already, you wait for them to go into labor, or schedule a c-section.
You don't "break the water" of dogs. Each pup has it's own "bag" you know....it is not like people. You have MUCH to learn about breeding.
I guess you can go ahead and report me for telling you the truth!!
So I night as well tell you that you are CLEARLY a BYB. Good breeders don't call themselves "PURE BRED BREEDERS"! LMFAO!!!!!!

I am a breeder and I was going to answer your question but, since I might get reported I will not. Trust me you wouldn't like what I have to say. So now you will just get people telling you to call your vet.

How can you report someone for being rude? Unless they personally insult you, I believe everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you just want your opinion, don't bother asking a question on a public forum.
