Sadly, yes ;( She's far to old to be having babies! And 10 is just a guess, since she came into the shelter as a stray we really don't know how old she is - She could be older, she could be younger, there's just really no way to know for sure. I'll see what my vet says Friday, and get an ultrasound done if there's any question. If she is pregnant I guess him and I will have to have a long talk and hard decision on if it's safer to let her have the puppies, or risk spaying her now and aborting the litter. At her age, I'm sure the chances of her needing a c-section to have them are pretty high. Some might depend on how far along she is, either way it'll be risky ;(
