Whelping and Rearing
You will want to understand the process of canine breeding and the whelping of your future litters. As whelping time draws close, the best thing to have around is a good friend and fellow-breeder who is experienced! And puppies have been whelped successfully "over the telephone," although that's not the recommended method! If you don't have an experienced midwife at hand, then we can't recommend these next titles too highly. Even if you are going to have help with your first litter, you'll feel more comfortable if you prepare by watching and reading.
