What are the precautions for giving birth to a Samoyed baby? Before giving birth to a Samoyed, you must prepare the delivery room, towels, warm water, scissors and other tools. When a Samoyed female dog takes too long to give birth, artificial assisted delivery is required. Sometimes the newly born puppies will suffocate and die, and need to be rescued within 1 minute. After giving birth, clean the dog's body, keep it warm, and keep it away from strangers.

First of all, before the Samoyed gives birth, prepare the delivery room, towels, warm water, scissors and other tools to wait for the dog to give birth. One day before the Samoyed gives birth, the female dog appears nervous, has an irritable temper, has enlarged vulva, and has enlarged breasts. Ruddy, white milk can be squeezed out, the cervix and vagina become soft and gradually open, crystal clear mucus flows out, and there is a small amount of blood. Female dogs usually give birth in the early morning and evening, so they should be carefully observed.

Now let’s look at the delivery process. During delivery, the Samoyed will lie down, look back at the abdomen, complain, moan, and breathe faster, then extend the hind legs, and thin liquid will flow out of the vagina, followed by the birth of the first fetus. The female dog quickly tears the fetal membranes with her teeth, then bites off the umbilical cord, licks up the mucus on the fetus, and gives birth to a fetus every 10 to 30 minutes. When the female dog becomes quiet after giving birth to several fetuses, constantly licks the coat of the puppies, and does not show any signs of fussing for 2 to 3 hours, it means that the delivery is over.

Just like people who have dystocia, Samoyed dogs sometimes have accidents when giving birth. When the Samoyed female dog gives birth for too long or is weak, it is difficult for the fetus to give birth normally, and artificial delivery is necessary when dystocia occurs. . The specific method is: first, the midwife washes her hands and disinfects them with alcohol, then holds the exposed part of the fetus's vagina with her hands, and gently returns the fetus to straighten the fetal position while the female dog is struggling. When reprimanding, move outward carefully, and the movements should be gentle and steady. When the fetus is delivered, quickly tear the fetal membranes and wipe the mucus in the mouth and nose with gauze. Then cut off the umbilicus 2 cm away from the abdomen, rub the broken end with 5% iodine to prevent infection, and then put the fetus back to the bitch's mouth and let her lick it dry.

Sometimes a newly born puppy suffocates and dies due to ocean water entering its respiratory tract, and needs to be rescued within 1 minute. The rescue methods are: first, lift the fetus upside down and pat it gently; second, wipe the mucus from the fetus' mouth and nose clean, and use alcohol to stimulate the nostrils. If the above two methods are not effective, artificial respiration should be performed. Specifically, lie the puppy on its back on the bedding, hold the dog's two forelimbs with both hands, and swing it back and forth regularly. After confirming that the puppy is breathing, put it in Wash and dry the body in shallow water at 39°C, and then return it to the female dog.

Finally, let’s talk about the postpartum care of Samoyed female dogs. After the dog’s birth, the dog’s body must be cleaned, dirty bedding and other things must be changed, and the heat preservation work must be done. During the nursing period of the female dog, do not let strangers approach her, as the dog will be very aggressive at this time.
