Cry I talked to the Vet

I talked to the vet yesterday afternoon. He said in all his years as a vet working with little dogs he has never seen a dog with her uterus and ovaries so enlarged. She went into heat in early to mid Sept. Was done with it in late Sept to early Oct. When he looked at her nipples yesterday he called me and said she was in a false pregnancy or pregnant. I told him she had never been near a unneutured male dog while she was in heat or otherwise. He was worried about Polycyctic Ovaries and he wanted to do the surgery just in case it was.
When he opened her up everything was enlarged. He said the incision was larger than he would have liked because of the organs size. From what I can understand when they spay a dog they just take out the ovaries. But he was aftaid to leave her uterus because it was so enlarged he was aftaid of an infection. Her teats were filled with milk also. He said her nipples may always stay a little large. He is perplexed. He is going to do some research on her condition. My poor little baby.
