Hi and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! When taking temperature to help predict when whelping will be, be sure to take the temperature at the same time every day to ensure consistency. If the temperature drops below 99F, Molly will likely give birth to her puppies within 24 hours. I hope this helps and thanks again for posting!
