Average gestation for a dog is about 63-65 days. Is she anywhere near her due date? Have you taken her rectal temperature? These are some things that can help you determine if she is going to start whelping any time soon. Any behavior changes can be a sign of the first stage of labor. Attached is an article that may help you recognize the signs of the stages of labor. http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=2+2109&aid=930 If you still have more questions feel free to post again.
