Many people now like to keep dogs as pets. After raising a dog, everyone must feed it well. However, after the dog reaches a certain age, it will also have to give birth. Therefore, when it comes to the birth of a dog, many people are confused and don’t know how to judge some things. I still know a little about dog production. Today I will share what you need to know about raising a dog: How to judge when the dog has given birth? If you are interested, please read the article below!
The following points can better allow owners to judge whether their dog has finished giving birth:
1. Observe whether the dog starts to lie down and rest;
2. Touch the mother dog's belly with your hand to determine whether there are any hard lumps in the belly;
3. Observe whether the placenta has fallen out, and whether the mother dog has begun to lick her baby clean;
4. Carefully check whether the mother dog's abdomen is still exerting force.
How to tell when a dog has given birth?
Although pregnancy and childbirth for dogs are not as difficult as for humans, they are still very harmful to the body of the dog mother. It is best for owners to take their dogs to the pet hospital for examination in the middle and late stages of pregnancy to determine the number of puppies in the mother's belly, so that they can better determine whether they have completed the birth during the birth process.
First of all, the owner should prepare a clean and comfortable birthing area for the mother dog who is about to give birth, and prepare diaper pads, insulation facilities, etc. to better help the mother dog give birth.
Secondly, the mother dog will consume a lot of energy during the birth process. If the mother dog starts to rest on the mat and no longer has shortness of breath, restlessness, etc., it means that the birth has ended. At the same time, the owner should gently stroke the mother dog's belly to check whether there are any hard objects in the belly. If there are no hard objects, it means the birth is over.
Again, when the mother dog gives birth, the owner should stay with her to comfort her throughout the process. It is necessary to observe whether the placenta has slipped out of the body and whether the mother dog's abdomen is still exerting force; if the placenta has slipped out smoothly and the abdomen does not continue to exert force; and when the mother dog begins to lick the placenta and licks the baby clean, it can be judged that the mother dog has completed the birth.
Regarding dog birth, I think everyone should pay attention to some things. If you are interested, you can learn it together.
