Question
hello Dr Ray Wigley my dog is pregnated what time i must wait for  she born?

Answer
Hi cristina
Wait for between 58 yo 65 days after she was mated
She will then begin to whelp and produce the puppies
She may need help and of course it is always wise to consult your local vet if she appears to have trouble giving birth
I would talk to them now and make yourself known to them

Expertise

I can answer questions on inbreeding of pedigree cats. Also when to inbreed and when not to inbreed. Also when to consider out crossing cats to help diversify the gene pool. I can also answer questions on how to get the best out of your cat at a show.

Experience

I have bred animals for over 30 years. I am actively engaged on research into FIP and other feline diseases also investigating litter size variation as a consequence of breed.
