You can usually tell by the end of her 5th week from her last breeding. Since you are new to breeeding, I would read anything you can get your hands on about breeding and whelping dogs, especially toy breeds. Get in contact with your Vet. Make sure that she gets the best nutrition. Get all your whelping supplies together in preparation for the big event. Make sure your vet will be available on her due date. One week before her due date have her x-rayed. You call her your wee babe, about how big is she?

| Well 2 be honest with you have never had her measured, u must advice me on how to do this, but when i brought her to the breeder she was bigger than 2 of her dogs but around the same size as her other 4. She offered me 1of her smaller dogs to breed with, but i choose 1 that was the same size as Missy. He is an international Irish champion the photos of him in show were lovly. |

Breeding these little ones is SO scary. So many special concerns that most people aren't aware of or would never think of. Certainly something to put a GREAT deal of thought and research into before just jumping into it. Stupid question: How do you locate the pelvic bones?
