Question
How long will my boxer spot blood before actually delivering? She has been spotting for 3 days.

Answer
Hi Paula,

If your boxer doesn't deliver today or tonight I would advise a trip to the vet ASAP. Every dog is different so there is no correct time but after that length of time I'd be concerned. Also if she starts pushing and no puppy comes in three hours I'd seek vet assistance ASAP.Good luck with your litter. Thank you for your question.
