We had ours at 80-83 it was too warm for mama so I put cool rags on her all the time, and shaved her hair real short (she isn't a show dog). No air.
Now the room is 77.5 - 78.5(they are two weeks old friday) it is much better for mom, their area that they are in is protected from all drafts ect. we now have a couple of window ac's so it is fairly comfortable, but the rest of the house is cooler... 73-75.
Good luck with the delivery.. do you know how many pups? mine went into labor a week early, I wasn't completely prepared (had to buy a hemostat) but knew she was in early labor because her temp dropped.
Hope this helps |
