Answer
What is the size of the female?   Pugs are notorious for birthing complications, but beagles (bred true) have easier time.   What is the size of the male she bred with? How much weight has she put on?  Do you have her on puppy food?  What kind of shape, healthwise, is she in?  All these factor into her ease of whelping.

A female is born with all the eggs she is going to produce.  It depends on how many she releases and get fertilize.  

Gestation is 62 - 64 days after ovulation.
