hi my bit@h is due the 21st of december well i want to set up her welping area now the problem is im worried as its summer here im in australia it gets to easy 40 degrees and my usual welping area is in a big shed.
will she be ok when she goes through labour and delivery if its so warm or do i have to let her inside will that make a difference she is an outside dog in australia thats how we do it she lives in a huge yard.
what about now will she be alright with the tmpratures at the moment she is usually fine and so are all the other animals but yeah the issue is the heat and her pregnancy thanks please no rude answers.

I think it would be best to bring her inside but i'm sure that would be a hassle especially since she probably isnt house trained since she is an outside dog. The shed is a good place since it blocks off the elements. Try getting a fan or some type of cooling system to make the shed an aggreable temperature. Especially when she is giving birth you want to make sure she doesnt get overheated. Supply her with cool water all the time. I'm sure she wouldnt want warm water to drink. Some other things to keep her cool is cook up some chicken broth or some meat flavered water or whatever you can think of and make flavored icecubes for her to chew on during the day. Also I believe at petsmart and and petco there are cooling pads you can buy that stay cool and will help keep her temp down. I hope everything goes okay and her pups find good homes.

let nature take its course, she will be fine. Make sure there is pleny of shade and water around and give her a few options for her den so she can select her own space.
