The Nationals were playing Atlanta, and in the fifth inning Harper, with his team leading by two, singled to right. The ball was hit to Braves right fielder Jason Heyward. Heyward strolled up to the ball as if he were walking to the corner for a paper. Harper promptly headed for second base.
Take the dog's temperature twice a day in the week before delivery. A dog's normal temperature is 100 degrees F and will drop by approximately two degrees within 24 hours of the start of labor. Watch the dog closely for signs that she has gone into labor.
Stage 1 labor has not progressed to Stage 2 labor after 24 hours; The first puppy has not been delivered after 1 hour of active labor; It has been more than two hours without another puppy arriving. (It is normal for dogs to occasionally take a break from labor between pups, but that resting period tends to last just an hour or two.)
