If it were me, I would have her re-rayed....a good, clear, well developed, easily read xray..... just to be certain there were no puppies present, or to be sure there were no retained dead puppies. If she is "clean" with no doubt, then she is having a false pregnancy, which they sometimes will do if they loose a litter before they are delivered....the pups are reabsorbed, but hormones remain elevated and momma can exhibit symptoms of a pregnancy. If she does indeed have retained dead puppies, you need to have the vet help her expell those dead babies....if early in pregnancy, they will ofter reabsorbe the dead fetuses, but if the dead babies are close to delivery, I would never leave those in momma .....set up for a dangerous deadly infection.
