The specific symptoms of Teddy dogs before pregnancy are:

1. The vagina of a pregnant female dog will shrink rapidly, and pregnancy reactions such as vomiting and loss of appetite may occur during the third or fourth week of pregnancy. On the 20th to 30th day of pregnancy, the mammary glands of pregnant dogs will protrude, the breasts will swell, and the nipples will turn pink. In the fourth week after breeding, touch the location of the uterus on the female dog's abdomen with your hands. The pregnant female dog can feel an embryo as big as an egg.

2. Changes in the vulva and pelvis: 3 to 5 days before delivery, the vulva gradually becomes soft, swollen, and congested, the skin of the labia becomes red, and mucus flows from the vagina. At this time, the pelvis becomes enlarged and the ischial tuberosity of the buttocks collapses significantly. 3 to 10 hours before delivery, the cervix opens.

3. Behavioral changes: When close to delivery, the female dog will show very obvious changes and her behavior will be characteristic. The uterus, cervix, vagina and other reproductive organs and their surroundings are congested. The ischial tuberosity of the female dog's buttocks is sunken, the hindquarters are soft, and the vulva and labia are swollen and flaccid.

4. Before giving birth, female dogs have a loss of appetite, are restless, panting, and breathing quickly. They look for a hidden place to give birth. Some female dogs have nest-building behavior. Dogs raised indoors often surround their family members and ask for help. Most dogs frequently enter and leave the predetermined delivery room starting 12 hours before delivery, and the time in the delivery room is long, and the number of outings gradually decreases. One hour before delivery (2 to 3 hours before delivery for a few dogs), the female dog will use her forelimbs to pick up the bedding, grab the towels, rags, etc. in the delivery room, and bite them off and tear them into pieces with her mouth, causing a low moan or scream. During this period, the vagina often exposes the fetal cells.

5. Body temperature changes: The normal body temperature of dogs is 38.3℃, and the body temperature of female dogs before giving birth drops significantly to 36.5~37.2℃. The body temperature of most female dogs is 36.4 to 37.2°C (the lowest body temperature) 9 hours before the first fetus is born, which is more than 1°C lower than the physiological body temperature. Therefore, the accurate time of delivery can be predicted based on the significant body temperature changes in the third trimester of pregnancy.

Due to physical changes, pregnant Teddy dogs will become more lazy, their behavior will gradually become dull and lazy, and most of the time they are unwilling to move and prefer to lie in the kennel to rest.
