This happened to me! I had x-rays done at 6 weeks (since this is what the vet recommended) but I've since learned that you need to wait until day 50-53 to be sure. At day 42 when I had them done, the vet came back and said he couldn't find any puppies, it must be a phantom pregnancy. Well, we just knew she was pregnant, and we were right! She delivered 4 puppies on day 58! At this time the vet said the skeletons must have still been "soft" (not fully developed) when he took the x-rays. |
