Yes she have had xray's and my vet said twice now NO PUPPIES are in her. I am not a breeder and so I would not know why her nipples are distended is that a sign she could be pregnant, my vet said today she is not pregnant and her weight gain which was 5lbs in 3 weeks was OK so why do I seem to have everyone confused all I was asking advice on was if anyone thought she was pregnant because I did she still sleeps all day and lick her vulva so I guess Im confused too. |

Yes because I didnt want to wake up and she having puppies. I wanted to know ahead of time because even tho he said she is not pregnant to me she still have signs she is and I think I read that Yorkie's can have false pregnancies, I don't know this is why I was asking for advice |
Im sorry about your maltese |
Thanks |

It sounds like she might be having a false pregnancy. I have never dealt with it personally but, I have heard of them. Me personally, I would have had her xrayed that many times too. She is gaining weight very fast and her nipples are distened which are both signs of pregnancy. I'm sorry to hear about your maltese. It takes a strong person to still be able to care for this dog after what it has done. Good luck to you!! |
I am not a breeder, definitely not, so I just have one question? Your vet was open today on a National Holiday honoring our Veterans who died for us? or did you go to an Emergency Vet? Why would a vet expose this pup to that many xrays? At this point I'd be wondering how good this vet is, maybe a new vet who can explain all these things to you better is in order. |

I was only asking for advice and I'm still not sure why are you so confused. I said my vet said no puppies but she is still gaining weight, sleeping alot, and licking her self. So I asked for another one and he did it today and said she is not pregnant. And the weight thing I stated that I weighed her myself it could be off a little. I just was looking for some advice not trying to confuse no one, and still don't see how you are Thanks |

Like I said before my vet is really good that is my opinion, and as for why he ws open today Im not sure but Ill be happy to give you his information so you can call and ask him why he was, I had an appt. and I went thats all I can tell you and also whats wrong with getting an 2nd xray to be on the safe side since she is still have sign of pregnancey I didnt sign up to prove thing to you or no one else I just was looking for advice and support. |

This is a holiday here but I didnt not ask why he was open today I guess his choice, anytime I have called him he has answered for me but like I stated before Im more than willing to give you my vet info for u to call and ask him why he was open and she only has had 2 xrays not 3 and she continue to show sign she pregnant, just a few minutes ago she was nesting but like I said I got her so I have to either continue to make sure she is happy and healthy or find a home to fit her needs and I think Id rather keep her than send her to someone Im not sure if they will properly care for her |

Also, xrays in of themselves are not healthy for anyone or any living thing. Your vet should have been able to do an xray and explain to you why your dog was acting pregnant etc., even though she wasn't because he read the xray and found that shes not. Either your vet is taking advantage of your checkbook, or he just isn't qualified to handle your pups issues. I'm not trying to offend you at all, I'm trying to help. Please find another vet who can help your pup. |

Is PM Private Message??? Im new to this and really don't know how to work this site yet so do I click your name and find PM??? Im not offended its like Im having to prove things and all Im trying to do is find someone to give me helpful words I been around pregnant dogs just never had one myself and I am concern because like I said I dont want to wake up and she in labor or having puppies and he only charges me for the xray which was 28.00 bucks so I dont think he is just hitting my pockets up. I think its the fact that he is the only vet around our ER vets is 45miles away and so is the next vet but I don't know I will try to PM you his information and let you find out. I'm not a rude person and trying not to be but if you can't give me advice on Sassy why find other things to bring up, but like I said he told me she was not pregnant and seem to be doing alot better and that was that. I don't know what to ask him about her and when I ask about her licking and sleeping he said she could be going into heat for me to watch her because she is schedule for an spay next week and that was it. |
Written text doesn't adequately express the tone of a post, with that said many people are trying to help you its the information they are trying to gather from your posts. I really think your vet needs to explain more to you than what he is. I now see that you live in a very small town? I really wish you could find a vet who was more thorough. I don't think shes is pregnant, and she could be going in to heat I think you need to get her spayed asap and work on refining her training. I really hope you have good luck, thank you for helping this pup despite her "issues", I am really sorry about your maltese that is so sad. |

Your right about that, but the information is there and as long as she don't go in heat before next wednesday then she will be going to get spayed and if she do all my dogs are fixed. Thanks for taking time out to give me your thoughts and advice on my situations. |
Your girl is exhibiting the classic signs of a false pregnancy. I had a foster dog I took in with a false pregnancy last year, and she was exactly the same way. The aggression toward your Maltese is because of the hormone imbalance. The girl I had was vicious, but sweet and calm after the "pregnancy" was over. My girl ate a lot, gained weight, had big nipples, and her milk came in. She gathered stuffed toys, and bit her previous owner's child when the little girl tried to pick up the toy. My vet would not spay until she finished the pregnancy. |
