    The gestation period for a dog is 63 days (9 weeks). The mammary glands will begin to secrete milk 6 to 7 days before birth.  Normal temperature for a dog is 101 F. When the her temperature drops down to 98 F, the babies will be whelped (born) within 24 hours.

    Thank you for so much information that I've often wondered about. Guess you've been around dogs for a while...

    I love dogs. I want to work at a Vets office but I've had no luck.
