 View a video of two newborn puppies.

These newborn puppies in this video were removed from their mother via Cesarean section surgery.  The mother was two days overdue... the usual gestation period for a dog is about 62-63 days from the breeding date.  Once the timing gets to or past 65 days it becomes critical to achieve delivery of the pups so that they don't "outgrow" their blood supply.

Additionally, past 65 days of gestation there is a greater chance for the placenta to separate from the uterine wall.  When placental separation occurs the delicate interface between the mother's blood and the pup's blood is compromised.  This is where exchanges of nutrients and waste products such as carbon dioxide are made so any interference with placental-uterine communication quickly leads to the demise of the fetus.
