The length of the female dog's production process will vary depending on the breed and physical fitness of the dog. Generally speaking, the whole process takes 3 to 4 hours, and the interval between the birth of each fetus is 10 to 30 minutes.

Dogs generally do not require artificial labor during production, but nowadays due to the emergence of various watch dogs, they are of different breeds and petite and exquisite, so they have to need artificial help dog production. Before giving birth, the dog owner should wash his hands and disinfect them with alcohol or disinfectant. If there is an injury on the hand, latex gloves should be used to prevent infection.

1. The bitch must pay attention to certain methods for midwifery:

1. Use both hands to gently handle the exposed fetus, and gently return the fetus during the interval of the bitch's force, and then slightly Turn the position; then carefully pull out as the bitch exerts force.

2. For the delivered fetus, the fetal membrane should be torn immediately, and the mucus in the nose and mouth should be wiped off with gauze; Cut off, then apply 5% iodine to the ends to disinfect.

3. If the delivered fetus is suffocated by amniotic fluid and suspended in suspended animation, the fetus should be lifted upside down and tapped gently to drain the amniotic fluid and wipe away the mucus that blocks the nostrils. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.

2. Precautions during midwifery:

1. When the bitch is giving birth, it should be calm and avoid the bitch's excitement and tension. Therefore, during the midwifery process, the dog owner should try to be as quiet as possible, and not to yell or encourage the dog.

2. If the bitch still can't give birth after struggling for more than 2 hours, or the fetus cannot be fully delivered after 10 minutes of exposure, be sure to ask a veterinarian for help.

3. Don't let the bitch swallow too much placenta, just two or three. Although the placenta has a prolactin effect, eating too much will inevitably cause digestive disorders.

4. After giving birth, if there is still bright red excretion flowing out of the vagina, immediately plug the vagina with absorbent cotton. If the bleeding persists for a long time, see a veterinarian as soon as possible.
