whelping box

Post by hunter31 »

Hi guys got a question my beagle is hopefully due april 13 how long before they start to show and I have a insulated dog box that is 20X20 and when you take the middle divider out it is 40X20 would this be big enough for a whelping box also this box is in a 8X10 metal shed
Thanks Hunter

We always use the little kiddie pools. They are round, no corners, easy to disinfect and cheap. I keep 2 on hand so that I can just switch them to the clean one, while I disinfect the the dirty one and let it dry. We have never lost a pup in one.
