How long after the milk bags drop does the mom give birth?4 replies

We have a chihuahua mix, who is pregnant with a border collie’s babies, and I was wondering when we should be expecting puppies. Her bags dropped approximately last week, or the week before.
the chihuahua isn’t a small chihuahua, it is the size jack russell

    Milk bags???…..Sheesh,

    If you’re serious, schedule a c-section, or you’ll likely lose your dog.

    EDIT: Well, she’s still not the size of a border collie, is she? Talk to your vet BEFORE labor starts, or you could lose her.

    wholly cow! I would see your vet to schedule a C-section, those pups might be too big for her to deliver! as for the milk, when you actually see milk, touch the nipples and there is it, you can expect pups to start arriving with in 24 hours.
    get some help!

    Usual answer – speak to your vet. Normal gestation period is 63 days give or take a couple either side. Maybe this will help you work out when they are due.

    ask the vet who I hope she has seen several times through out the pregancy to ensure pups and mom are healty. Oh wait, byb this might take away from the profits…. never mind.
