False pregnancy...help My Yorkie thinks 2 of her squeek toys are her babies. She licks them and trys to nurse. She has all the signs of pregnancy.. Nesting, Mothering inanimate objects, Lactating. It is so so sad! She is freaking out and it is starting to worry me know. Should I play along with her or should I remove the toys from the house for a while? Maybe I should take her to the vet? She was in first heat March. This is just about the time puppies are due if I would have breed her. Is she going to do this everytime after she has been in heat? Will it get better... worse? Should I have her spayed? Will spaying help? Any advice would be great! I hope this is the right section to post this at. |
Anyone have any comments? Anything would help! Thanks! |
If you don't mind my asking... Why have you not spayed her up till now? Were you thinking abour breeding her? Young pups recover from spaying faster than older dogs. If you have no plans to breed her, by all means, have her spayed. I just had my Wosie spayed. It's healthier in the long run for the dog, and you don't have to deal with the mess heats bring. OR an accidental pregnancy that is best avoided anyhow... Good luck! Let us know what you decide.:thumbup: |
