When should I expect puppies My dog is lactating already2007-11-25 2:54:51

You need to take her to the vet. Especially if she is leaking from her vulva. This would indicate that labor is not moving forward. She could have a dead puppy stuck, the whole litter could be dead if it's an infection. Get off the computer and take her to the vet... or just sit there wondering and let her die.

Get her spayed ASAP then you won't have these kinds of very dangerous and un necessary MYSTERY LITTERS. ARG!

If you aren't certain "WHEN" she was mated, it is difficult to calculate when she will whelp.

well this is exciting for you because you will have pups soon. it could be anytime now for her to have her pups. just watch her very closely and if you have to go anywhere then you will need someone there to watch her. as long as you everything ready for her and the pups then you are ok. well also to with her being 7yrs be careful because sometimes when they are at that age they could have complications having the pups. i don't want to scare you but they usually at age 5 is the age to stop breeding and if you don't know how this happened then that is ok. just watch her and if you notice any complications with her having the pups then call your vet. she should be ok but just in case have your vets no# near by for emergencies. i hope this helps and good luck with your new pups.

They start lactating about 72 hours before labor, but, just like in people, everyone is different.
