My dog is due to deliver at anytime and I have been checking her temp for 2 weeks (as recommended by my vet), but her normal temp is anywhere from 99.0-100.5. I asked my vet and she thought this was weird (but proabalby her normal), but that is the consistant temps I am getting at the same times everyday. My vet told me about the temperature drop prior to welping, but has anyone else experienced a dog with a normal low temp? Her puppies dropped 6 days ago, she has milk leaking, she started losing her mucus plug last week and I took her to the vet 2 weeks ago for an ultrasound and the vet said she estimated it would be about 1-2 weeks until she welped. Please do not leave any negative comments. This is my first time breeding my lab. She is registered as is my male. I have taken her to the vet several times and I have done my homework, just never heard of a normal low temp. Thank you!

Let me again add..I have had her to the vet and I did ask my vet these questions..she was NOT concerned. I trust her, just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this.

Dogs, like humans, can have a "normal" low temp just as your vet told you (My Husband is one of those humans...).

Dog's can have a "normal" low temp.
Good luck, I wish nothing but the best for you and the puppies.
