| After Heat Bunni is finished with her heat cycle she started it around the 20th of March (she should be done right?) But I've obviously never had a dog who went into heat before, so my question is. Now that she's done her nipples are swollen. She hasn't had contact with dogs until the last week. And they were BIG dogs too (labs, german shepards etc etc at a dog park) Is she pregnant? or is this just a normal thing to go through. I was told not to breed her because she's so small (she's 3lbs, fullgrown) and I never had any intention to breed her. I just hope there wasn't an accidental pregnancy. She was taken out at the end of last week with my boyfriend and I wasn't there to keep an eye on her, so I have no idea what happened if anything did. Can anyone give me suggestions? |

| She could have a false pregnancy....or not. If so, she will seem to go through the stages but not produce pups. However, the swelling of her teets is normal. Just watch they don't get lumpy or bumpy. Don't think she is done being in heat because she quit bleeding...that is when they are actually ready to mate. Your boyfriend would have known if she mated....they get "stuck" for quite some time....you can't miss 2 dogs standing butt to butt and not moving around. I'd say that she is probably perfectly fine...just keep a close eye on her. My female came into her first heat at 8 months...her little boobies swelled and when she was all done, they just didn't go completely flat like they were before. Hope this helps you. |

| heat It is quite normal for the teets to swell after going out of heat..it is hormonal. |
