Sounds to me like you will be having a long & exciting night ahead of you. Keep a close eye on her; don't leave her alone. I had a female have a litter of pups a little over a year ago....she had 4 pups, two that were breech, all were born alive and well. Good luck to you & Daisy.

Temp has been dropping all day and was at 97.1 at 9:30 pm...is that normal? No signs of fluids or any contractions...how soon should this start?

Should probably be within 12-24 hours of the final drop. All girls are different. Just stay close by and watch her closely. Best of luck to you! They always seem to want to do this in the middle of the night! I don't know why!

Sorry it took so long to update everyone but unfortunately we were heartbroken. Daisy was in first stage of labor all night we took her to the vet next day and doc said she was doing good and had puppy coming down birth canal. They asked us to leave her with them and let them take care of it. The first puppy was very small and stillborn..the second had a birth defect and it had a herniated umbilical cord and didn't make it. We did get a healthy little boy and he is beautiful. My daughter is going to keep him. My precious little girls that I wanted so badly didn't make it and we were heartbroken. My daughter is not going to breed Daisy in the future. Thanks to all of you for your support and well wishes!!!

I'm sorry to hear about the 2 puppies not making it.

But you have the 1 healthy boy to take care of and he will be so special to you. Your in my thoughts and prayers.
