| Sounds like she may be losing/ or has lost her mucous plug. I am not an expert by any means though so wait for an experienced person to comment on this one..... Is she having any other pre-labor type signs? I did raise goats and she began to have a thick stringy mucous before she actually went into labor. I am sure somone will have better, dog oriented advise for you soon. |

| The thick clear stringy discharge from the vulva is normal. The green mucus stool is not. Has she had anything different to eat? Is she 56 days from the 1st breeding. Usually they will start pooping more right before delivery but it should not be dark green unless she ate something she shouldn't have. |

| She is 56 days from the first time they tied. I did give her a small piece of black forest cooked ham last night, but before this she was still having small puppy poops too. I read on a post here that some one was asking how many times and how much time in between ties too... why is this significant> or is it? thank you for your help! |

| I used to raise pits, and one of my females had this stinky green discharge. I rushed her to the vet, and he said it was normal. All her pups were healthy.

The reason we ask about the number of ties is because that gives us a better idea of the range of days the female might possibly whelp in. Last edited by bjh; 03-05-2009 at 05:47 PM. | |

| I never even BUY HAM!!! GRRRRR or pork products, but we did have it last night and I gave her a small piece, I hope she is ok. But I WILL say this - she is having contractions I think - she is burying her head and tensing up and her bottom goes in the air. It started at about 6:30 or so and I will keep a close close eye on her, because I DO NOT want her having these babies yet! I think 56 days is too early no? Thank you for the input... |

| I hope she is not going into labor either. She needs to wait a few more days. Sometimes when the pups drop (get into position before birth) a few days before delivery the momma can act a bit strange. How many is she expecting? Is her belly really tight? |

| I don't know how many she is expecting, but yes her belly is tight most of the time and she is acting really restless, her eyes are really glazed like she is in a daze too. I hope she isn't sick or anything. The babies are moving a lot still too. When she will cuddle with me for a few minutes I can feel them squirming. If she can hang on till Monday at the very least I will be happy. I will try to post a picture of her. |

| I couldn't figure out how to attach photo to a post - but I was able to create an album of her - there are three pics there - her belly has grown even in the last few days again. |
