Breeding - What to expect after mating. Pregnancy, also called the gestation period, normally ranges from 58 to 65 days with an average of 63 days. With a planned breeding, the date of mating should be carefully recorded. If there are two matings, make a note of the exact dates and expect birth to occur between 63 and 65 days later. Immediately after your female dog has been mated, is there anything you should do? Make sure that she does not have the opportunity to mate with any other dogs. Remember that oestrus will continue for several more days and she could theoretically become pregnant from another dog during this period.
A dog's gestation period is 63 days, and most females give birth within three or four days of their due date. However, labor can be a difficult process and can last for up to 12 hours. It can be necessary to progress a dog's labor if there are long gaps between puppies. Step 1. Set up the whelping box in a quiet room one week prior to the dog's delivery date. The dog will be restless and look for a place to nest before going into labor, and the whelping box gives her a place to rest up for the impending birth.
