What are the prenatal signs for Maltese dogs?

There will be mucus flowing out of the Maltese dog’s vagina 1-2 days before giving birth, which means that the birth is about to happen. On the day of giving birth, the Maltese dog almost stopped eating and drank water occasionally (pay attention to observation)

Maltese dog prenatal preparation:

Before giving birth (usually in the early morning), you should stay with the Maltese dog as much as possible. The Maltese dog will start to tremble and will find a relatively dark corner to dig its nest (my Maltese dog was shaking all over the place while he was alive, and kept digging on the sofa). At this time, you need to take out the prepared birth box and put the Maltese dog inside (the one I bought has a dog cage, and the base mat and clean old clothes are laid in the cage. The Maltese dog will scratch it by himself. Planing makes it more comfortable)

1. Prepare the delivery room so that it can wait for delivery in a quiet, comfortable and undisturbed environment. Generally speaking, you can find a secluded place in your dog's usual living space, or use the dog cage it is used to living in, put wooden boards, cardboard or other things on the outside, and put old bath towels, cloth strips, etc. inside. . Since puppies need to be kept warm after they are born, electric lights or electric blankets are also indispensable equipment in the house.

2. Prepare the thread for tying the umbilical cord. White cotton thread is preferred, and the length is suitable for easy knotting.

3. Prepare scissors for cutting armbands, which must be disinfected with alcohol cotton.

4. Prepare a towel to dry the puppy’s body when it is born. Just keep it clean.

5. Prepare several sheets of old newspapers to use as pads during production and to wrap dirt.

6. Prepare iodine and alcohol for disinfection.

7. Prepare oxytocin, hemostatic drugs and other drugs for temporary use in case of emergency during production.
