ok, let's see, is a misconception that is the dad is bigger than mama the puppies are going to be big, mama will control the size of the babies until they are born. the size of the babies are determine by the lineage on both sides., take her to the vet and ask for an x ray, that will tell you how many babies you are expecting, and if her pelvis is the right size to acomodate the birth. do you have a whelping list of everything you need? also VERY important to have the whelping pudding, I usually make mine when my girl starts her labor. is super important that your girl gets calcium suplement every day. let me know if you have any specific questions and I will try to help you.
