Question
Hi my Brittish buldog is due to have her babies via C section, my problem is she is due on a sunday, so do I leave her a day over til monday or take them 2 days earlier on the friday, I am sure she wont last til the monday as she is huge, not really eating and it is just so hot here at the mo and is taking it's toll on her, it is only wednesday and she is suffering, I am just wrried about the difference those 2 days will make for the pups.

Answer
Hi Julz

A planned c-section is always the better route to go.  Before you decide anything.  Did you witness or assist in the breeding and are your days accurate?

It's better to do a section at 60 days.  If it was my female, I would be going in on Friday.

Good luck
