Pregnant Boerbull dog

Question
Hello I was wondering if you can please help me.  My dog is approx 61 days pregnant.  Since last night she has been scratching the floor and scratching her bedding.  I have a whelping box for her.  Are these signes that she is going to have her pups soon? Should i start putting her in the room to get familiar with the box where she is going to have her pups

Answer
Hi Bernadette

I love the SAB's!

Yes she should be in the whelping box to get her use to it.  Line the box with old newspaper, she'll want to shred it and make a nest.

She can keep the nesting up for a week, so you may still have time.  

Good luck
