Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / is she pregnant or is it phantom
- By ClareAndDogs [gb] Date 01.02.04 15:03 UTC
mt bitch, came into sesoan we tried mating but it didnt happen, no problem, theres laways other seasons, but now her teats are swooling, she has become very clingy and sleeps alot... and my dog is again now trying to mater her, when we have playtime, now she was kept seperate from the male, till the end of season.

all i can think is that, she hadnt completley finished her season and he might have caught her. or is she having a phantom.

bitch and dog, have had all health checks, scores.

most bitches will have a phantom of some degree post season (some you wouldn't notice, others have behavioral & physical changes) Unless you can be 100 % certain that your girl was never alone with you're dog for all of her season, then there's no way of knowing if she's pregnant, unless you have her scanned or until she's gone 9 weeks & see if she produces babies.
how long did you keep them seperate for?
or how many days was it from first signs of her discharge - that you put them back together?

well how long has it been??, if longer then 28 days take her to the Vets and have an Ultra Sound done:) that way you will really know Oh and it so cute to see;)

Flutterby, I saw two when my bitch was scanned and they were soooo cute. 

I went for a scan.  My vet did mine for my bitch when she was 35 days.  I only had this done because I couldn't wait.  I had to know for definate and I am glad that I did as we are now fully prepared for our new arrivals due in 2 days time.

Good luck with your bitch Clare and hope you find out one way or another soon as I was a complete wreck until it was confirmed.

she's booked in next week for a scan, but i'm 99.9% its a phantom, let her oput with dog (supervised) he's trying to mount her still, but she's just wanting to play, still keeping her in just in cases, also dont want bitch to go for dog, as he is very constant, trying to mount her

fingers crossed, i havnt slept in a week with worry, having to check, her to make sure she is ok, god knows what i will be like when she is properley preggies

thanks for the kind replys

What you have to ask yourself is were they alone together at any point during the season?
If they were then she could be having pups.  My stud dog always trys to mate my bitches around 3 weeks after mating.
