E 267. Whelping Puppies: Everything to Know with Standing Stone Kennels
Wednesday, 7 January, 2026
Today's podcast is extra special because we're joined by our good friend, Kat Pippitt, from Standing Stone Kennels. Kat has spent years refining their whelping process to ensure the best possible result for the dogs, the breed as a whole and for the families who accept their GSPs into their home. Kat is an absolute wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to this sort of thing and she tells it like it is. If you're considering having pups with your dog or you're looking for a breeder, we have some things you NEED to consider to help make the best decision possible. Enjoy the show and take notes. Here's a few highlights from the show: Ethics of breeding and health clearances for your dogs Breeding dogs: there's a lot of ways to get this done What happens after the breeding and during the ~64 day gestation period? What do you do with the dog, when can you confirm pregnancies, should you do x-rays or ultrasounds... why? Ok so it's time for birth... what should you do to prepare, what tools do you need, how many of those tools, what to plan for, when to act, what drugs to consider, c-section vs natural birth vs emergencies. Then we discuss single pup litters vs big huge 101 dalmatian litters Hooray, the pups have been born! What do expect during the first week, super pup training and the 8 week period while they're in your care.
