Hi I've got a small breed bitch and I've been trying to get her pregnant fo about 3 tries so far all ended in her not pregnant and she did have false pregnancies instead and she seems to go completely off her food and probably eat titbits there and there I had to hand feed her last time any ideas on what I can try this time around this will be my last try with her and if she doesn't get pregnant or if she does after she's reared her litter she'll be spayed

How old is she now? On the breeder my friend got a dog have the same case, though the bitch is in perfect health, the vet thought there's something like her ovary is not too strong..

How far apart are her seasons? I have a bitch here that I tried for 3 seasons before giving up. I saw a fertility expert who said that as she had her seasons 19 weeks apart her hormone levels were not reaching the right level to stay pregnant. She was getting to about 6/7 weeks pregnant and then losing them. Heartbreaking.

I would find a specialist and see what they say but you may just have a bitch that can't have puppies.
