i think my baby girl is gonna have puppies soon but i don't know when, she is getting restless and has a sorta hard belly and her babies are moving around a lot, is this normal and if so how much longer should it be before my grandpups arrive? this is the first time i have been through this so i have no idea what to expect and i didn't read on it before it got this late, so i don't have anything to help her with the birth. i just need some advice on what to do and how much longer she has until she gives birth, she is sleeping at the moment but i don't wanna go to sleep and she have problems.

It could be several hours. What kind of dog is this? When my dachshunds had puppies I read that when they start pushing They should produce a puppies within an hour. I gave them about an hour an a half and 2 of mine did produce a puppy within that hour and I called the vet and I had to take them in for C-sections. We had beautiful and healthy puppies every time. The vet said that I brought them in just in time. I hope you have a wonderful time with the puppies. It is an experience you will never forget.

I posted a reply, with a helpful link in the other thread you started on the same topic. I moved that post from the general section into the dog talk section. Since there are now 2 threads on the same topic, I am going to lock this one, so watch for replies in the other. Good luck.
