To determine whelping date Do you count 63 days from first tie or the 63 days from the last tie? |
i count from the first tie but my girls have never gone over 60 days except this last litter. she went right on day 63. |
like what dee said...from the 1st tie. they can go up to 65 days but if she hasn't delivered by day 65, she needs to see a vet right a way. mine have gone at day 60, 63, 64, 65(scary) |
Okay. Thank you. |

There are Pregnancy Progression Calendar too . You select the the date of the tie it will tell you when due and what's going on through out the pregnancy. Here's is a few http://www.schaferhund.com/gsd_pregnancy.aspx http://www.debbiejensen.com/date.html |
I use the Debbie Jensen Canine Pregnancy Calendar and I really like how you can read about what is going on and what to expect day by day!! |
Just Curious With out a test or ultra sound.. are there signs of Pg in a Yorkie before you can you see the belly getting big? If so, about how many days with each sign. And how long is it till u can see visible signs of Pg? :confused: |
At about 3 weeks Morning sickness might occur due to hormonal changes or stretching and distension of the uterus. Dam may appear a bit apathetic. She may be off her feed for a while and vomit from time to time. Feeding the dam several meals spaced throughout the day might help. Your veterinarian may want to prescribe a drug to relax the uterus. At about 4 weeks An experienced person (a breeder or a veterinarian) can tell by careful palpation whether the dam is pregnant. It's now the best time to do this because the embryos are walnut-sized now and easy to count. |
i have to ask.....is your girl pregnant? and if so, have you ever done this before? you are scaring me b/c most people research and learn b/4 actually attempting to do this |
I was not sure if I wanted to breed my girl or not and was talking to my vet on this. I have been researching and still researching and asking questions. We have 3 yorkies.. 1 male and 2 females. One female spayed .. she is very tiny (3lbs) Our other female is around 4 and a half pounds. Well, She was in her second heat and I was giving her a bath... My daughter had just gave the boy a bath in our other bathroom. My daughter was then towel drying her boy on her lap in the living room. I opened my bathroom door and my girl ran out and that fast the boy jumped on the girl .. we hollered and it was to late... they tied. So, just incase you want to make me feel bad... Mistakes happens to all humans.. I am stressed enough and trying to do what is best from this terrible inncident. I knew I was not yet prepared for me to breed .. As I am still researching and learning. Sooooooooo I wanted to know signs to make sure. Although I had already talked to my vet and he said if I feel she is pg after 30 days make sure that I have her in for an xray at around 5 to 6 wks... If anyone has any other polite advice I would love to hear it. |
Hi :) Mistakes happen and can happen to anyone. Sometimes its hard to tell if they are pregnant for awhile. Some signs may be vomiting (morning sickness), nipples stay errect, vulva may stay swollen (not go back to the normal size), and she may seem more "needy". Around 30 to 35 days in , I've found that if I lift up my girl from under the arms and have her body dangle down straight I can tell if her belly is getting round. When did they tie? Unfortunatley is hard to tell for while. Good luck !!!! Quote:

They tied May 27th so this would be her 36th day.... and it seems to me that her belly does seem rounder but not sure if its in my head.. you know. thats why I was asking for nething else that I could go on. Thank you for being so sweet. :) |

It could cause damage the pups. You need to wait until she is at least 45 days. I don't do X-rays on mine until they are around 50 days pregnant. AND as always YT is always here to help if you need it. Mistakes do happen just read everything you can to help get yourself prepared, Is there a breeder in your area that might help you?? Maybe let you watch a birth and answer questions, be on hand when it's time for pups to be born. |
