They're in Pain or Ill. Your dog's panting could be a sign of pain or illness. Pain can have a hidden cause, so it's wise not to ignore your dog's steady panting. Panting that is accompanied by a raspy sound or gurgling could indicate an emergency.
Time Frame. The first sign of labor can last from 6 to 12 hours, although contractions have not started so the dog may not pant. Panting starts when the contractions begin. The first puppy should appear in 30 minutes.If not, call a vet.ogs can take up to two hours in between whelping puppies in the same litter. If a dog actively goes into labor with panting and then is too exhausted to continue, she may have uterine inertia and needs veterinary assistance immediately. (See Reference 4).
