Hi,

What are the first signs of pregnancy in a bitch?

Many thanks

Anyone?

i have breeded dogs for quite a while now, you want advice on first signs well the main one to look out for is a big change in bahaviour (ie) wants more attention more love etc, the second one is normally visable after two weeks her breasts will enlarge and breast that arent normally visable near her chest will grow, after about three to four weeks if you know what to feel for you maybee able to do a test your self,

use the palm of your hands and gently feel just past her ribs you may feel golf ball sized lumps,

this was advice given to me by a very good vet/dog breeder

hope that helps a little

ps. visable signs are normally visable at five to six weeks.
