Will it hurt my dog to travel while pregnant?
By
We think our Mini Dachshund is pregnant. If our calculations are right she is due anytime between the 1st and 4th of January. We are going to visit family for Christmas, which is an 11 hour drive. We would be driving back on the 4th, which would be 60 days gestation exactly. I realize this is going to complicate things and could be a little messy but I just want to make sure there's no increased risk of our dog dying in labor or anything if we are traveling around the time she is due. Only helpful answers please.

If this were my b*tch there is no way in H3LL you could talk me into stressing her by traveling so close to her due date.
Please realize that whelping can normally occur anywhere from Day 59-67… and I’ve had more litters on day 59-60 than I have on day 63.
