Thank you for submitting your question regarding Rolo. I recommend that you monitor her closely as she will likely go into labor soon. The gestation period of dogs can vary and at 59 days, she is within the realm of normal. Unfortunately, bulldogs are a breed that commonly requires c-sections. So you will want to be with her as much as possible to monitor her progress. Good luck!
