How long is the normal gestation period of a dog?

I'm waiting on a puppy from a litter due in about 3 weeks, so I got this one right!

I remembered this because for humans it is nine months ; for cats and dogs, nine weeks

Mari, That's a good way of remembering

i dont own dogs so used my majority vote for this one

Arohanui, not sure it is getting bored with it all but more a case of all those sharp little teeth starting to hurt a lot when dragging on a teat 😱 my dog waa a great mum but by week six they were already started on a weening plan 👍

Arohanui, it's usual for a mother to stop feeding, wean the puppies or kittens and teach them to fend for themselves. She didn't get bored, she was just a good mother.

I REMEMBER WHEN OUR DOGE WOULD HIDE IN OUR CLOSET.EE SHE HAD HER LITTERS. 7 PUPPIES . THEY WERE ALL DIFFERENT COLORS. AFTER SHE HAD EACH ONE, SH

MadMarcus1812, So did I.

Player #2438477, sincere Congratulations! Looking forward to adopting a puppy later this year if and when i hear about a promising litter

OUR LAST DOG XENA HAD TWO LITTERS OF 7. THEY ALL LOOKED DIFFERENT. ONLY ONE LOOKED LIKE HER. SHE WAS A SHEPARD COLLIE MIX. LONG HAIR.

Little Saint, the question asks for the "normal" time so isn't meant to be exact.

I had no idea, already thought woman are amazing by giving birth but dang, dogs love them more

Got it right! Yay!
