A day or two before whelping puppies, the expectant dog mother will generally stop eating. She will begin to "nest" in her dog whelping box. Her temperature will be below 100 degrees. She will be restless and usually scratching. She will frequently need to do her business. Usually they have a little bit of diarrhea and may throw up.
