Pregnant dog??

It's called the truth she can die... just stay high guard. Once I fixed one of my girls after a litter of puppies and she soon died of cancer after.

Yes, I’ll definitely stay high guard.

Just be careful and do your research! And I mean it! DO YOUR RESEARCH!!

It looks like a kind of collie!

Shelties look very much like Collies. Shape of head is different and they are much smaller, a little less than knee high. Some people do call them miniature Collies or miniature Lassies, lol, but we will stick our noses in the air and say they are NOT Collies, humph!

Pardon me for this off-topic comment but I just have to say Sammy and my other, older Sheltie are great with the chickens and keep coyotes away so we can free-range our birds.

Congrats! I have great pyr mixes, and they had their second litter together two weeks ago. They are a lot of work but also a TON of fun!! We have started doing ENS with the puppies and plan to do puppy culture with all future puppies. We sell them for 400-450 right now. And they go to their new homes when they are seven weeks right now, but we are thinking about moving that up. We also have started giving them a 6 way puppy shot. I know a lot of people sell pure great pyr's for 5,000-10,000 each. but, mine are not pure.

I’m willing to take the risk because the unborn pups deserve a chance.

Don't worry I'm sure she'll be fine. Keeping you and the pups in my prayers! You are doing the right thing!!

There is a way to tell when she will go into labor. I did it with my boxer about 10 years ago. It involves taking her temperature every morning. She will have a sharp drop in her body temp. (Not sure of the exact temps, but I'm sure you can look them up). When her temp drops, she will go into labor that day.

the lower 90s is what it drops too. this worked both times with our litters the normal temp is around 101 I think

Puppies need to stay with their litter and dam AT LEAST until 7 weeks old for proper socialization. Please do not sell them any earlier than that! They may be able to eat solid food earlier than that, but they NEED the development they get from interacting with theif mother and other puppies.
