My Bitch has been in labour since thursday afternoon and all has been okay so far, Last night bout 8pm she really got into bed tearing and i gave her a stack of newspaper for this purpose, she is not eating but allowing herself to drink a little as the weather is warming. I have stayed up with her and slepted next to her all nite and will keep this up for as long as it takes.  My question is how long now could it be before the contractions start and 2nd stage comes. (she is a husky)
