The temperature goes up, probably around 104-106 (this isn't bad, dogs are hotter than humans, and this is normal.) then when she is through it goes back down to 100-103
This is incorrect. A dog's normal body temperature is 101 - 102 degrees. In the last days of pregnancy, it will be subnormal..100.2 to 100.9, and when labor actually begins, it will drop at least a full degree, down to about 98.5 to 99.4. Pups should be born within about 24 - 30 hours of the drop in temperature.
It is very much correct, i worked around dogs a long time. Plus when mine had her pups the vet said it was normal for it to be that high.

It's impossible to say whether your dog is in labor from this information. There may be a temperature drop prior to parturition, but you need to know what your dog's normal daily temperature is. 97.5 is too low to be a realistic reading unless your dog is very sick.
How do you no when the dog is in labor?
Dogs can "turn off and on" the labor. If it's too noisy, or there are too many people, and she doesn't feel safe, she will delay her labor as long as possible. Depending on your breed, there is a certain temperature that mother dogs reach just before they have puppies. Research into your specific breed, and then regularly check her temperature, and keep a chart.

Nearly all dogs have a temperature drop 24-38 hours before they go into labour, and will spike soon before labour. This just happened to my dog. She is due and her temp has been down since yesterday morning and just now it spiked to 101. So i started researching and found out that approx 12-24 hours before labor the temp will have been dropped and than will spike to around 101! So she should be going soon.
