breeding season How will I know my girl is pregnant, I didn't see them tie because we left them alone, but they are both laid sleep, and they haven't been humping or anything and for the past two days they have been going crazy with it, what are the first signs of pregnancy? |

I'm not understanding and I think that in order for people to help out, it has to be clear. When talking about 'my girl' is it your dog? What breed are the dogs? Do they live with you or are watching over them for someone? How old are they and how big? Is this thread related to your previous one? |

People really need to start researching before they stick 2 dogs together. |
Breeding is a responsibility! I don't mean to lecture or speak down to you or anyone but I just looked at your previous posts. You complained in March that your 7 week old Yorkie purchased from a breeder had very short hair and not of good quality. The next post you were concerned that your Yorkie was not purebred. You mentioned the sire and dam respectively were a standard Yorkie and a "all blonde" Yorkie. Today you posted that your 8 month old female puppy tied with a male and might be pregnant. Then you post again today about a 2 year old female that may be pregnant and you want to know how to tell if she is indeed pregnant. I don't know your education or knowledge of breeding but I can tell that you need to do more reading and less breeding. Dogs are not a science project created in a test tube. They are living animals that depend on us to protect them, feed and care for them. In return they give us unconditional love. Everyone on this forum would be willing to help you. This is a group of caring, loving, knowledgeable breeders and dog owners that would help you in anyway possible. You have to do your part and from everything I have read you need to take a step back and educate yourself about breeding healthy, happy dogs. The internet is full of free material to read. The questions that you are asking about pregnant females concerns me that you will have seriously ill or dead females and puppies soon. You stated you did not have enough money to spay a female earlier. Then you do not have enough money to breed a female. Please think about this. I have never posted anything like this before and hope I never feel this concerned that I post anything like this again. |
If you don't have enough to have her spayed how are you going to afford her vet care during and after whelp? The shots and dew claws and tails? And any other medical expenses that might happen during whelp such as emergency c section. It would cost a lot less to have her spayed now. I fear for your pups life not only because she is so young but also because it doesn't seem like you have the finances to provide her the care she is going to need in the coming weeks if she is pregnant. |
.............omg................... |
We can't help you with a lie come clean we all are not perfect we all make mistakes right now worry about getting a answer to help your dog and let your "friend" sign up and ask her own questions but if this is such a concern of both parties I would speak to your vet hope you get ALL the info you need |

If I am understanding this right...I really hope you don't have to come here and ask these questions for your breeder(owner of your fathers puppy) :( I would think they should know these things if they've already been breeding their dogs....and I truly hope your 8 month old girl isn't pregnant. BTW...they have cheap spay and neuter clinics where you can get your dog spayed for very little. I just checked and found one in your area. Here is the number.... 336-279-0563 It is $80.00 to spay your dog there...and it's $60.00 if you are on a subsidized income. $80.00 is a drop in the bucket compared to having a litter of puppies. You wouldn't even get out of your first pregnancy check-up with a vet for as cheap as that. Even if your little 8 month old did actually tie, it's not too late to spay her!! There are millions of pets that are getting euthanized simply because of the pet overpopulation. People breeding, just for the sake of breeding their dog, are only contributing to the problem. Heck, you don't even have to go to a breeder to get a yorkie puppy anymore....rescues are giving them away on Petfinder all of the time!! At least once or twice a week, YT gets the same type of "Hi, I have no idea what I am doing and I think my dog is pregnant" thread. Threads like these used to make me mad when I first came here...now, they just make me sad :( I feel bad for all of the unwanted dogs on petfinder, in rescues and in shelters who come from people who were too lazy to spay or neuter...or from people who were greedy and thought they could make a quick buck...or from irresponsible owners due to the breeder not giving a crap about where their puppies went to as long as the owner had a dollar in their hand. It make me sad that dogs are being put to sleep every day because there's not enough people who are able to take care of them. I just don't understand why people feel the "need" to breed their pet when there are so many other dogs out there that need good homes. I guess I could understand if there was a shortage of purebred yorkies out there to adopt...but there's not. Anyways...I truly hope you will consider spaying your little girl. If you don't do it for the pet overpopulation, do it for her. Breeding this little dogs is dangerous business. I am sure you'd be heartbroken if anything happened to her because you decided to breed her and something went wrong. |
