OK, one of my dogs (Snowball) is 60 days pregant. This is her (and mine) first litter. So for the past 3 days I've been taking her temp morning and night. Yesterday morn it was 99.7. I thought "OK, here we go!" Then by 1 pm, it was 100.2, then by evening 100.4. This morning, I took it and it was 98.9. So we moved her inside. (Never has been an inside dog.) At about 11 am, it was 101, and now, at 2:30 pm it was 100.3. Could the stress of moving inside spike the temp up that much?
Should I call the vet? I know the temp increses in the evening, but by that much? Or am I taking her temp too early? ( I've been doing it around 9-10 am when I feed them) Is this the "real deal"?
She is eating fine, and acting fine. Sleeping and panting a bit more though.
Thanks!
