I had a little mini dachshund that would have a false pregnancy, after every heat...Around 60 days, she would start nesting, and bringing her toys into her bed...This would go on for a couple of weeks, and I felt so bad for her, because she wouldn't come out of the closet...I finally had her spayed @ about 3 yrs. old...This was back in the days, where spay wasn't so popular, and people didn't usually do it, unless there was a chance the dog might get pregnant, and that was never an issue...so yes, some dogs do have false pregnancys, nipples swell, and the whole nesting instinct happens... |
