Boxer Dog pregnancy

Question
My Boxer dog is due to have her pups on the 12th June but just today she has been drinking lots of water ie three, four bowl fulls and wanting more. I'm a little concerned but is this normal

Answer
Hi Tina. I can't really say if this normal or abnormal, every dog is different. It does sound like quite a bit of water, but if it's pretty hot where you live, or if the dog is very active, it may be normal for her. I'd take her in to the vet for a check up just to be safe. If something is going on, you'll want to catch it fast for her and the puppies. Good luck!
