Absolutely they know! My big boy, Buddy (a GSP) even knew when I went into labor before I did! I was pg with DD1 when we got Buddy and the morning (2am) I went into labor he was right there with me. He knew. I woke up and decided to go to the bathroom and he went with me and laid his head on my lap. When I started walking back to the bedroom my water broke and I started having contractions 15 minutes later. He didn't leave my side until we left for the hospital. When I got pg with DD2 he became super clingy, and again with DD3. He was also really good with the girls when they were new babies, always worried when they cried, laying with them during tummy-time, being their horsey when they got older.
