you will need a whelping box for the dog to have her puppies in, bulb syring for cleaning out the nose and mouth if the mother is slow at doing it or doesnt do it all, lots of towels and or blankets so you can keep changing them during the delivery process, a pair of scissors so you can cut the cord if the mother doesnt do it, string to tie off the cord before you cut it, bottles in case for some reason the momma cant nurse them, goats milk on hand, for the same reason, and i would also suggest you get some advise from an experianced breeder to get some helpful info before you breed cause anything can go wrong during the pregnancy and labor process, I hope this has helped and good luck with breeding and i wanted to let you know alot of people dont want to help other people start out at breeding,, but i see that people have to start somewhere, and i have no problem trying to help someone that wants to breed their dog but if your breeding for money then that is a bad reason to breed,, I hope i have helped and Happy Holidays,, if you have any other questions please feel free to email me
Edit:
I forgot to mention that you will need a set of baby scales to weigh the puppies from the day they are born and every day untill you place them with their new homes so you can make sure that they arent losing weight,
also another thing that i do for my puppies is that i get differant colors of collars so i can tell them apart and a journal book to wright down when the first one is born and so on and the weight for each one, identifying them by the collar

I would not recommend breeding your own puppies unless you are a registered breeder, or your dogs are registered. There are enough abandoned and homeless dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, ANIMALS in the world as it is. There is no need for backyard breeders. It would be incredibly stupid to breed a bunch of puppies when there are so many that are already out there looking for good homes.
