Whelping Support

The whelping process, or giving birth, is a critical time for both the mother and her puppies. At GoVets, we offer expert whelping support to ensure the health and safety of all involved. From guidance during labour to post-whelping care, we are here to assist you through every stage of the process.

Health Benefits

Why It’s Important for Your Dog’s Welfare

Whelping is a physically demanding process, and without proper support, the mother and her puppies can be at risk. Our whelping support services ensure that the mother is kept as comfortable and stress-free as possible during labour.

We provide a calm and controlled environment, which is essential for the well-being of the mother, as stress can negatively affect labour and milk production. Additionally, our timely interventions in case of complications help prevent harm and ensure that the whelping process concludes safely for both the mother and the puppies.

FAQ

Signs of labour include restlessness, nesting behaviour, a drop in body temperature, and heavy panting. If you’re unsure, it’s always best to contact us for advice

If labour appears to be prolonged or if your dog is showing signs of distress, contact us immediately. Complications during labour can be serious, and prompt action is crucial.

The whelping process can take anywhere from a few hours to an entire day, depending on the number of puppies and the mother’s condition. We are available to assist and advise throughout the process.

After whelping, it’s important to ensure the mother is resting, hydrated, and producing enough milk for her puppies. We offer post-whelping check-ups to monitor her recovery and the puppies’ health.
