Of course she has nipples but as long as she doesn't have to nurse puppies they aren't that visible. But don;t give her that chance, get her spayed if you haven't already.

Well, I'm gonna go out on quite a limb here and believe you. I'm pretty sure you're at least a reasonably intelligent person who is capable of telling whether or not your dog has nipples. If she indeed does not have nipples, it's no big deal. She won't need them, providing you don't plan on breeding her. But, I dunno what the deal is. I've never actually heard of a condition in which any animal wouldn't have nipples.

That's a new one. Unless a dog is nursing, the nipples are very small,but there are 8 nipples. Look on her chest and belly and you should see 4 nipples on each side.

Are you sure she doesn't have nipples? Dog nipples are usually quite hard to see on adult dogs, they are easy to see on puppies, for some strange reason. Check closely, they are lower on the abdomen than you might expect.

I'm pretty sure she has nipples, wait until she gets biggert, maybe they aren't visible, or maybe she isn't a she...check. Don't listen to her, if you want puppies then let her have puppies. But, if it is a she and she does turn out to not have nipples, you might want to get her spayed because if she does have puppies they won't be able to nurse.

We don't use the regular puppy pads because the pups chew them up and tote them across the room poop and all. We buy baby crib pads. Our pups are broke to these by the time they are 4-5 weeks old.

I have never heard of that problem, you might want to consult with a vet. Is she a small dog or big, short haired or long?
