Hello, sorry to hear about Xena. She may be going into labor soon. Monitor her for any signs of labor without producing any puppies as this could indicate that she is having a dystocia. Signs may include lethargy, panting, vocalizing, pain, and eventually dullness. Otherwise, ensure Xena has a padded area that is warm and dry for her to deliver her puppies. Best of luck and hope this helps.
