hi all my girl is now 46 days from 1st mating and still no signs of any babies her belly is slightly swallon but not overly too big, she is a slim girl anyway,
im taking her for a blood test on tuesday to see if she is pregnant, jsut looking for advice if any of your girls been like this with no sign and then had puppies she had all the usual signs at beginning and at the moment im having doubts if she is
thanks all donna
Sophy showed all the signs - my mentor was certain she was pregnant, the vet thought it possible, albeit a singleton or small litter - and then the scan showed absolutely nothing there! Next time I will be getting a scan (x-rays are not offered routinely in the UK).
Years ago one of my boxers was mated and showed no signs of a thing. She only had two puppies, which was hardly any for a boxer. The vet was able to feel them without an xray.
At this stage in the pregnancy the vet should definitely be able to palpate.
Lizette showed all the signs of pregnancy that you described with her first breeding...it was a false pregnancy. At this stage you should see the nipples enlarge.
If she is carrying high up under the ribs she will not be very wide...also if she only has one or two pups. Smaller litter carriers sometimes do not go into labour so it is best if you get the vet to palpate to confirm pregnancy...and if so have an x-ray to determine litter size.
thankyou all for the replies im taking her for blood tests tuesday, so will get the vet to have a feel then, ive had a feel myself but not too much but then again im not a vet so wouldnt have a clue what i was feeling, will keep you updated thanks again
Too bad...must be disappointing. Thank you for the update.
