I see three puppies, but easily one could be in hiding. And yes R view shows one puppy presenting at this point in time as a breech.

It is important; did the vet do a pelvic measurement to see if there is a good chance of free whelping for her?

Temperatures, some females can go all over the place with temps. Look at this as a guideline rather than a hard and fast rule.

Whelping pudding recipe is on this forum up at the top.

Have a calcium supplement handy too. For after whelping is done.

Lots of toweling or old sheets.

Have your vet on speed dial, and know where you can get emergency help fast. Your vets? Or ER - Preprogram route into your GPS.

Learn signs of whelping distress fast!.

Have a travel emergency kit ready by the front door. Blankets especially to keep her warm.
