How does a pig give birth?

Mothers will make a nest in the bedding floor to give birth on, her vulva will loosen and redden. She will lay down and get up until she is ready to give birth. Once parturition begins she will have a contraction, the first will be born, then after that piglets will be born about ever 2-5 seconds until she is finished. Piglets will begin walking almost right after being born and begin to nurse.

Can puppies be trained from birth?

not exactly at birth, but at the point when their eyes and ears open. believe it or not you actualy can train them when their ears and eyes open, despite what all the trainers will tell you. you can train newborns to sit or lay down or any type of trick. but you can teach them to pee on pee pads ( the first litter we had, we had poty trained them by the time they were walking) , not to play bte or bite your fingers and not the bite and growl at you. If you know how to train dogs, then you can train your pups ( and sell them for a higher price bcuz they are poty trained or w.e)


Does it hurt female dogs when they are bred?

If you plan on breeding i suggest you read up on it first and always have a Vet check you dog before you plan on doing this sort of thing. Smaller breeds can have problems when giving birth and breeding a dog is not a small chore. I have breed dogs for years and you as an owner need to make sure your dog is healthy before breeding a potential gene defect into a new litter
