Honey- a crate is not going to cut it. If they need to contain her off the furniture or whatever, the fact is, when in labor, mom can easily step on another pup, which would kill the pup. Maybe once labor starts, move her back into the bigger area "kiddie" pool. You still need to watch but at least she can move easier when in labor and take care of the pups afterwards in the weeks that follow..

I finally got her out of the cage but now she refuses to go in her kiddie poll so she is in the corner on a bunch of news paper and a blanket, and for now thats fine with me. once the pups come out i have a heat pads and towels to keep them warm and theres enough room for her to still move around until they are all out and I can move them to the box... she is actaully now shivering, she was panting and digging a bit and she is sleeping now! So she is going in anytime, but she can also hold of for 24 hrs cant she? hopefully she just has them soon and they are all healthy and everything goes smoothly, I have everything out and the lights dim for her.

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers, that everything goes well for both of you. I totally agree she needs to be where she has alot more room, i had a box of sort prepared when my cocker had her pups years ago but it was large enough for her to move around and still have the pups with her. Good luck to all of you. let us know how its going.
