However, if your little girl looks like she is not stressed, go with your gut, she is probably just having a long labor as it is her first litter. Be glad she is giving YOU some warning, I have had one give no warning at all, just squat and push out a pup in the middle of my kitchen floor, no warning at all. |
Yes. Good thinking. I have his and his assistants cell numbers. His assistant is his daughter so I will try and reach her this evening for heads up just in case. She is well aware that the time is near as I spoke to her yesterday.
