I have a bitch who is now two days past her predicted whelping date if I use 
the progesterone date showing her at 2.4 ng/ml  (should have caught the LH 
surge).  Vaginal smears did not agree with progesterone test.  She was 2.4 
ng/ml at 9 days in season....but stud dog owners did smears at 13 days ( not 
totally cornified) and 15 days (totally cornified).  Which should I trust in 
planning a possible C-section?   My vet says wait for temperature drop...that 
may be too late.
Thanks for any info.
