Hard to find them sometimes and again it depends on where they are implanted and where your bitch carries her pups.By 26 days they are marble size maybe a tinch smaller but by 30-32 days they are grape size like Pat said.(unless you have a singleton and then they are about quarter size by 30-32 days.)
It is easier for me if they are standing and she has to be relaxed. The fatter the bitch the harder to palpate the skinner the bitch easier it is and a empty stomach.
My vet showed me how to do it about 20 years ago.Can always ask your vet to show you how. |
I tried standing and I felt them!!! I think there's 2 or 3!!
