I have 6 dogs total and have experience with dogs so i would know what to look for but just not with pregnancies with dogs and I always de-wormed my pets when i first got them and they get de-wormed just about every month. as for the yorkies they are my first pair so this is why i posted. Maybe i used the wrong term bloated but to me, she looks pregnant. I have never experienced a pregnant dog in all my years of being around dogs or owning them so i am not to familiar with that part. I took her straight to the vet the next day for a check up and that was what I got. I just dont want her to undergo an x-ray if it is not necessary that is all. |
For the situation it seems like your concern is very real, she may have had a heat and mated with her brother??? Well, if that is the case you may want to ask yourself about if you want to deal with a litter of "in-bred" puppies, that can potentially have a ton of health issues. If she was exposed to a different breed male, a larger one , her life could be at risk .
Have you thought about having an emergency spay done?
I never had this and i am not sure how i would react my self if facing such situation, but it is a choice available for you , if you make a decision soon.
If she turns out to be pregnant , you also risk the need to have an emergency c-section to be performed if labor does not go natural, and because of her young age and the lack of background knowledge on her, it is a real possibility. C-sections, when planned ahead are already expensive, emergency ones can be VERY expensive ... can go into thousands of dollars, financial stress and emotional stress is involved.
You are in a tight spot .
Hopefully this info was of some help for you .
