How do I know if my dog has delivered all her puppies?
If the dog is no longer whimpering, moaning, or panting, it may be a sign that it has finished whelping. Count the puppies just to make sure that you have the right number. Supervise your dog for at least two hours. If you’re not sure if your dog is taking a break, continue to supervise your dog.
