As long as she is healthy you should have no problem. If she is having trouble you should take her in though.
Usually flat-faced dogs (like the Pug, Bulldog, French Bulldog) have troubles because they are top-heavy. |

any pregnancy can have problems. just have a vet contact that you can call anytime incase you need to help her. make sure you know how many puppies to expect and start reading up or talking to a vet to know how to help incase you need to. plus the proper care of the puppies when they first come out, like making sure they are breathing, clearing out there nose and mouth of fluid ect. |

Take her to the vet, they will scan and tell you how many puppies are coming. Any breed can have complications, so always have your vet's number and an emergency vet's number to hand.
Most dogs deliver on their own, but, many many many dogs have puppies that have died inside of them, or a puppy stuck in the birth canal or they rupture and bleed, or they can have eclampsia.. or they may need a c section. Or a puppy can die because the sac was not broken quickly, endless things can happen.
Be ready for complications and emergencies and start saving money towards any emergency bills you might have. |

She should not need veterinary help but if you are not too sure you can take her to a vet and get their advice, the only dogs that cannot give birth naturally are bulldogs because their heads are so big. |
