This little girl was pregnant when I picked her up at the shelter, and I don't have a clue as to when she is due. I just check her every day to see if her milk has come in, which it hasn't yet.
All my GSD pups have been born outside, either in the milkhouse or the barn, and this will be the first litter born inside the house. I have some extra rooms, one is the summer kitchen with the cement floor---but it needs a major cleaning since I haven't been able to keep the cats out of it during the winter. It's nice and warm because of the wall heater. There is also the front room (which is really sort of a three season room), which is nice for dogs, but it is not heated unless you keep the door open to the house. It might be the best place, I could just put up the baby gate to keep the other dogs out and the heat in. There is also my bedroom.....but I am not especially keen on further damaging the hardwood floor. And of course, there is the main house and cages, etc where she would be in the mainstream of family life.
What do you all think would be the best place?
