Having a dog who is pregnant can be a difficult task for an owner. You are worried all the time about how the birth will go, not knowing if some complications are going to happen.
Even though it’s a journey filled with anxiety, you just want your brave mama dog to be happy, and those puppies will change more than just one life.
Taking care of these newborn babies is not just the mother’s task. As an owner, it’s necessary to do a lot of things to make sure these puppies grow up to be big and strong.
When this owner from Oklahoma first found her dog, Daisy, she had no idea that the pup was pregnant. But, after learning that, her whole life would change overnight.
Daisy’s Story
When a family from Oklahoma first ran into Daisy, she was on a road with another dog. They stopped to try and help both of them, but one of the dogs just ran away.
Daisy was also scared, but she saw her new mom and knew she could trust her. It took some convincing before they were able to take her in.
Shortly after they took Daisy into their car, they drove straight to a clinic where the vet performed an exam, and the results were surprising.
She had no microchip, and she was likely living on a chain her entire life. This was just horrifying to hear, but it would explain why she was so reserved when meeting other humans.
A month later, they also realized that she was pregnant, so the family immediately started preparing for it. Her mom wanted to create a whelping area for Daisy, but the dog had some other ideas.
She dug a hole in the yard and spent a long time there. She didn’t want to leave, so her new mom had to get clever in order to get her out of the hole.
Amazing Ideas For A Whelping Area
After spending some time on ChatGPT, it recommended that she should create a new whelping area that is somewhat similar to the one Daisy dug in the ground.
Basically, it should have shade, something that resembles a hole in the ground, and a place where she can move the puppies in.
Not only that, the AI also recommended that she add some dirt from the ground in the whelping area that she was digging in, so her mom followed all of these instructions.
Now that everything was set up, she just had to get Daisy out of the hole and into the new whelping area. What could possibly go wrong?
She placed a leash around her and then used treats to get her to move. Surprisingly, it was very successful, and Daisy loved her new safe space.
As expected, Daisy gave birth to two beautiful puppies very soon after that. Pretty much everything went smoothly, and she is now a proud mama to her adorable babies.
Daisy’s mom named them Poppy and Petunia. These pups will grow up so fast, and it’s just heartwarming to see that they are in such good hands with their human family.
