If you haven't started already, begin reading everything you can get your hands on about whelping.
Do you have a mentor? Will your vet be available if there should be an emergency? Are you prepared (financially) for a possible C-section.
Start gathering all the necessary equipment and meds you'll require for the whelp.
If you work have you scheduled time off for her whelp. She won't be able to be left alone from her first date and for a few weeks after the whelp. |
Great advice. Preparing, researching and working with a mentor BEFORE breeding is definitely recommended. Breeding is NOT something you just 'pick up' as you go.
