I holding off to take her to the Vet because i want to get Xrays done to make sure everything is ok and check on the number of pups. I know Xrays should be done at the end of the pregnancy..

I felt my our puppies move at around 6 weeks.

That's what I thought too. Get them to pee on the stick, wait a few minutes, and then we would know!

They actually do make a test. It tests for relaxin which is present when a dog is pregnant. However, you have to have their blood drawn and spun down. The test isn't really accurate until about 22-27 days after mating. By that time, you can have them palpated by a vet. Also, the test is expensive.

Hooray! Puppies on the way.........congratulations to you.

Now it's my turn to play the waiting game as I am in the same boat as you were a few weeks ago.........wondering and waiting to see if my girl is PG. She was bred in mid June.
