Hi Everyone!

I just joined because I need to get some advice(other than go to vet, I will do that on Friday anyway).

We saw a Yorkie on Craigslist and got her yesterday evening. She is the most wonderful little girl! We love her already.

Here is the issue and question: The prior owner made the statement that Sassy got out of the house and was outside for a few hours. At the time that I talked to her prior owner I was told that Sassy was spayed. Come to find out, when I text her prior owner today, she says she wasnt. I figured this out already as there is no spay scar.

Sassys vulva is swollen, alot more than a normal yorkie and her teats poke out(like pics Ive seen of pregnant pups). Shes not big, but her tummy is firm(hubby mentioned this last night thinking it might be worms but the more I think, the more I dont think it is, and no worms are showing at all). She sleeps alot but she is 6 years old too.

Shes not in heat, Ive seen dogs in heat before and she isnt. With the little info that I can give, is it likely that she is pregnant? I love her and well take care of any little Sassys that come out but would have loved a little prior warning.

We are taking her to the vet on Friday to see if she can tell. Just wondered if anyone could give me an idea. I can get a pic of her tummy if I need to.

Thank you so much for any help you can offer. Its my registered pup, my first CL pup. If she is, there is no telling what the pups will be, other than adorable. She will be immediately spayed either after the babies come as soon as she can or as soon as I find out that she isnt!
