Welcome to PawMama — a blog created with love for dog owners who want the very best for their furry family members.

My name is Huma and I started PawMama after going through my own dog's pregnancy journey with my beloved dog Bella. When Bella became pregnant I searched everywhere for clear, honest, and practical information about dog pregnancy and puppy care — and I found that so much of what was available was either too complicated, too medical, or simply did not answer the real questions I had as a first time dog mom.

So I decided to create the resource I wished I had found

PawMama is dedicated to helping dog owners navigate every stage of their dog's pregnancy and puppyhood with confidence. From the first signs of pregnancy to whelping box preparation, newborn puppy care, feeding guides, and everything in between — every article on this blog is written from real experience and genuine love for dogs.

Whether you are expecting your dog's first litter or you are a seasoned breeder looking for reliable information, PawMama is here for you every step of the way.

Because every mama dog deserves an owner who is prepared, informed, and ready to give her the very best care possible.

Welcome to the PawMama family! 🐾

10 Common Dog Pregnancy Myths — Busted

Image
  When Bella was pregnant, I heard so much conflicting advice from well-meaning friends, family, and even random people at the park. Some of it turned out to be completely wrong — and following the wrong advice can actually be harmful to a pregnant dog. Here are the most common dog pregnancy myths I encountered, and what's actually true. Myth 1: You Should Feed Her Twice as Much Food Immediately A lot of people believe that as soon as a dog gets pregnant, she needs to start eating double portions right away. This isn't true at all. In the first three to four weeks of pregnancy, a dog's calorie needs barely change. Overfeeding this early doesn't help the puppies — it just leads to unnecessary fat gain in the mother, which can actually make labor harder later on. Real increases in food only become necessary from around week five onwards. Myth 2: A Pregnant Dog Should Not Exercise at All Many owners assume pregnancy means their dog should be kept as still as possible. In r...

How to Prepare for Your Dog's Due Date

Image
 The weeks leading up to your dog's due date are both exciting and intense. You know the puppies are coming — but are you truly ready? Preparation is everything when it comes to a smooth and safe delivery. The more organized and prepared you are before labor begins, the calmer and more confident you will feel when the moment finally arrives. When Bella's due date was approaching I made a complete checklist of everything I needed to have ready. That preparation gave me enormous peace of mind — and when labor began I was not running around looking for supplies. Everything was exactly where it needed to be. Here is a complete guide to preparing for your dog's due date. Step 1: Know Your Due Date Everything starts with knowing approximately when your dog is due. The average dog pregnancy lasts 63 days from ovulation — or between 58 and 68 days from the mating date. Count 63 days forward from the mating date and mark that as your target due date. Then mark day 58 as the earliest...

Signs of a Healthy vs Unhealthy Puppy

Image
As a new puppy parent, one of the most important skills you can develop is knowing what "normal" looks like for your puppy — so you can quickly notice when something isn't right. When Bella was a puppy, I remember constantly wondering if certain behaviors were normal or something to worry about. Over time, I learned the key signs to watch for, and I want to share them with you today. Signs of a Healthy Puppy Bright, Clear Eyes Healthy puppies have clean, bright eyes with no discharge, redness, or cloudiness. Their eyes should be alert and responsive to their surroundings, tracking movement and showing genuine curiosity about what's happening around them. Clean, Pink Gums Gums should be pink (or naturally pigmented, depending on breed) and moist — not pale, white, or overly red. A quick press test (pressing gently and checking how fast color returns) should show a quick refill, usually within one to two seconds. Healthy Coat and Skin A healthy puppy's coat is soft,...
