Answer
How did you must find out that your Mastiff was pregnant? I am not understanding the information you are providing, is she 6 weeks pregnant or is she 6 weeks from delivering? These are two different numbers. I do not know what 37.5 is, you would need to figure out the equivalent in fahrenheit. If she is going into labor then it is too early. Dogs have a gestation period of 63 days. Before then can be detrimental to the well being of the puppies.
