I'm glad to have it. March 4, 2007

I bought this DVD because I have a pregnant dog, and I'm excited and nervous about the birth. This DVD does show an actual whelping, from early signs of labor (panting and shaking), to contractions and restlessness, and on to several births and how the Mom dog cleans the pup and severs the cord. The dam has 9 pups! So it was very helpful for me to see what the pups in their sacs look like when they protrude and are pushed out. Also, to see how they lie and look very limp at times, between birth and the first wiggle. So I feel more prepared with what to expect.
This DVD would not take the place of having and reading at least a few books on the subject. There are a lot of circumstances that can arise that are not addressed. It is not by any means a comprehensive course on whelping, and does not cover the actual breeding act at all, or the raising of the pups.
This DVD is very obviously a "home video" in quality and cinematography. The man filming is alone, assisting in the birthing while holding the camera. So at times you can't see what is happening because his attention is on the dogs. But if you are wondering if you can handle assisting your dog through whelping, or just want to see what it all looks like, it is very helpful. I would say it is grossly over-priced. But from what I can tell, it is the only one of it's kind available through this site.

I found this video extremely valuable in making a decision if breeding is right for me and my dog. It takes you from preparing for the puppy whelping, labor, puppy whelping, and the care of the puppies afterward. This video is excellent and highly recommended for all potential breeders of dogs. This video is highly graffic and shows the entire birth. It is also great for those who would like to know how their puppy was born and cared for before it came to your home.
