What are the normal symptoms for a dog after giving birth?

What are the normal symptoms for a dog after giving birth, and what are some things I should be concerned about?

Ask your vet. every dam should be taken to her vet for a postpartum check-up 12 – 24 hours after delivery. she also needs an injection of oxytocin to make sure she expels everything from her uterus and it returns to normal size. especially important if a dam is owned by someone without a clue as to what they're doing!

To start: Take her temperature daily for a week.
Are you reading ANY books about breeding dogs or whelping puppies?
