full trem shih-tzu preg.

Question
what is the longest my shih-tzu can be pregnant? can they go over the 58-65days pregnant?

Answer
Normal is 58-63 days. Begin Taking RECTAL Temperature at day 57!
Normal dog temperature is 101-102 at late pregnancy it is around 100 and 24 hours prior to delivery it drops to between 97-98.  SEEK IMMEDIATE ATTENTION WITH YOUR VET IF:  (1)The temp drops and labor does not start within 24 hours. (2)The temp does not drop within a week of dogs due date. (3)Labor contractions continue without a puppy for more than 30 minutes. (4)All pups are not delivered with 24-36 hours of labor and followed by placenta for each.
