I'm so glad you have done some research. But, you can NEVER learn enough.
Keep reading and you'll be a pro at it. I have to say thought that as far as days, ( in Vet. school they teach them 63-73 days.)
Now i know i am going to hear it all about the 73 days. None probaly ever
go that many days but it is not a total shocker if it did. I have never had a bitch go pass 62.
Anyway, good luck
