Hello! First of all, thank you for showing such kindness in taking care of the pregnant dog you found. The situation with the people contacting you can be tricky, but let’s focus on what’s best for the dog and her puppies.
When it comes to someone claiming ownership, it’s important to verify their information. You can ask if they have any vet records or photos with the dog to confirm their relationship with her. The main priority is the well-being of the dog and her soon-to-come puppies.
In regard to the dog’s health, keep an eye on her appetite and comfort as her due date approaches. Make sure she has a quiet, clean, and comfortable place to rest. During pregnancy, it’s crucial to provide nutritious food that meets the needs of both the mother and her developing puppies. Fresh water should always be available.
Watch for signs that might require immediate veterinary attention, such as significant appetite changes, lethargy, vomiting, or any unusual discharge. Once labor begins, prolonged labor without delivery or distress should be addressed by a veterinarian.
Having medical support can make a big difference in how smooth this process will be. I recommend setting up a video consult with one of our veterinarians on Dial A Vet. We can guide you through these steps, ensuring the best care for the mother and puppies.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
