Beagle is pregnant

18 12:00:26

Question
It has been 63 days today that my beagle was bread and it is 8:15 PM and still no drop of temperature, I am getting concerned that she has not started labor

Answer
Hi. Hopefully, she has done something by now. Dogs can safely go to day 65, some may even go a day or two later than that. Just because a dog was bred on that day, doesn't mean she became pregnant on that day. It may have taken a few days for the eggs to have been fertilized. If she's doing good, no colored discharge, acting fine, then I would put a call in to the vet today if nothing has happened yet. It's also very easy to miss that temp drop. Good luck!
