- I believe then have been doing it on there own for many years.
- I DIDN'T KNOW HUMANS CAN GIVE BIRTH TO PITBULLS.
- oh wow...youre gonna have puppies?? congratulations...
- A vet.
- that is biologically impossible
- That depends. Are you a pregnant pit bull?
- You need 2 dogs. Female and Male. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but you, a male human, cannot give birth to dogs.
- Just put down clean sheets and let her do her thing. They've been pulling it off solo for a little bit here.
- woah, ur question sounded like you are giving birth to pit bull puppies, hahhaha. a box with padding so its warm, water and food bowl for mommy, a towel or two for the pups... idk, i've never had a dog giving birth, so i dont know much. sorryy
- wait... PEOPLE CAN HAVE PUPIES?!?! Whoa. thats pretty cool.
- a pit bull's uterus, for starters.
- just a clean safe place your pet feels comfortable with maybe old towels you no longer need. and keep other pet away, then the birth mother will try to hide her puppies.
- Phew! Giving birth to puppies?! That sounds hard! It's like having one child times seven! Oh the pain...
- LOL Well if your giving birth then a video recorder will be need to hallmark the rare event! You will need. Sharp clean scissors to cut the cords with if necessary. a babies bulb aspirator to suction out the mucus from the pups noses & mouth. unflavored dental floss to tie the cords with 1" from their tummies Iodine to place on the ends of each cord lots of clean towels to help dry off the pups with. Lots of newspapers to keep changing while the dam is whelping. A rectal thermometer A warm area to keep mom & pups. A warming pad for the pups Your vet on speed dial incase something goes wrong That should help you out quite a bit!
- I gave birth to Pitbull puppies recently and all I needed was towels and hot water.
- Make sure your female has a comfortable, quiet, warm place to give birth. Have some blanketed area ready for her. Give her fresh high quality dog food and fresh water. She will probably eat more as the pregnancy progresses. Check the bag for directions on feeding or do some online research if necessary. Also, you should have a small supply of puppy formula on hand and an eyedropper or two and/or a baby puppy bottle in case the female has trouble feeding the newborns. You can find the puppy formula in small juice box-like containers at every pet store and walmarts too. It is liquid. Keep refrigerated after opening. Warm slightly before feeding. Make sure it is luke warm only.
- You need to be a responsible breeder who does all this BEFORE breeding your dog: 1. Contact a breed club for your breed. Ask for a mentor. 2. STUDY the breed standard. Learn about dog anatomy and ask your mentor to clarify anything you don't understand. 3. Learn what genetic faults and diseases run in your breed and test for any that can be tested for. 4. Show your dog in conformation events to see if it is of the proper quality for breeding. Winning doesn't always mean a dog is breeding quality, but being around so many others that know your breed and will talk to you will do wonders for your self-education efforts! 5. Study the past history of great dogs in your breed. You will see how your breed has improved and progressed since the beginning of the breed. 6. Study the breed standard some more! ;-) 7. Join any Yahoo groups about your breed. 8. Live, dream and study your breed. 9. Get a good book on canine reproduction, and educate yourself about the pitfalls, problems, and proud moments of breeding. Learn about the physiology of reproduction, such as heat cycles and venereal diseases in dogs, potential for problems specific to your breed, and what you need to expect at whelping. 10. Remember that whelping (giving birth) can kill your female. Being used as a stud dog can encourage bad behaviors common in intact males such as territorial marking, aggression, and desire to roam from home. 11. Prepare to be broke. Breeding properly is EXPENSIVE. 12. Line up potential homes for any puppies you produce and write up a contract. Remember to include that you will be willing to take back your puppies at any time in their lives that they might need you. If you bring life into this world, it is your responsibility FOREVER. 13. Prepare to spend sleepless nights attending whelping females, caring for fading puppies or puppies orphaned, and practice cleaning up after 24/7 poop machines. I'm sure there are many things I missed because being a responsible breeder isn't just a job. It's a way of life. You will live dogs. 24/7/365. There are lots of hard decisions. There is a lot of expense. There will be pain. But, if you do your darndest to always keep the welfare of your dogs and the future of any of their offspring, you can go to step 14. 14. Enjoy the love and success of a job well done.
- Ermm, you are not giving birth to puppies, your bit*ch is the one who will whelp the pups. Your job is to keep watch to make sure nothing goes wrong and the whelping is straighforward. The first thing you need is your vets telephone number in case of complications such as a pup being stuck. You need a whelping box, plenty of clean towels, a heat source such as a heat lamp for the puppies, plenty of good quality food for the mother. One of those childrens shell pools makes a fairly good whelping box placed in a quiet area of the house. Hopefully some experienced ethical breeders will come along and give you good advice.
- Just let it happen. It's natural..... I think.... As long as it's the dog having the puppies... It is.. right?
- A comfy and warm bed in an almost empty room (you and one of two friends). Water and towels to clean up the puppies if you want (the mother would do it anyway, but you can hel her) and, after that, give them some good family-time :D
- Magical fairy dust. Are you serious? It's impossible for humans to give birth to any kind of puppies!
- i think u need to reword your question
