Put on a surgerical sterile glove and insert your finger in the vaginal canal to feel if there is a pu in the canal. It sometimes will make the bitch get down to business and pus some more.
danger signs
Constant hard labor for more than an hour with no results
Green or odorous discharge from the vulva
An interval of 2 hours between pups with occasional hard labor
Any part of of a pup stuck or protruding from the vaginal canal
One hour of hard labor and no puppies
Three hours of no labor between pups and you think there is another pup.
Is the pup nursing, because this will cause a release of natural oxytocin and may help her to begin contractions again to deliver the remaining pups.
