I have an 11 month old chihuahua that just got over her first heat. Right before she went into heat she got out and i didnt get her back for 4 days :( as soon as she came home she started bleeding so i thought i was safe from puppies. Now i noticed not only dose she have the normal teats shes supposed to have after her first heat, she also has little balls (glands) under each teat. Her belly dosnt look big until you look at her profile. She got out on x-mas night and i know its 63 days till puppies are born so it's still early. Will she be ok if she is pregnant seeing shes so young? And is it true chihuahuas have a high chance of having to have a c-section? I really dont have the money right now to take her to the vet. Not till next month, but im impatient!! I wanna know now!!! Please help me!

She probably isn't pregnant. Females bleed for about a week before they can be bred, so if she started bleeding after she came home than she shouldn't of been able to breed. The little bumps on her teats is normal after a heat cycle, it is just the mammary glands swelling from the hormones.

If you can't afford to take your dog to the vet, you CERTAINLY can't afford to have puppies. Call you local humane society to see if they do low-cost spays or recommend someone to you.
And remember, if you can't afford to have your dog fixed and can't afford routine vet care, you really can't afford a dog. What will you do when she gets sick and it's $500 to get her healthy again?

lets hope that it was little dog that got her.. call and talk to the vet. if you do have to have a c-section go ahead and have her spayed at the same time. she will still have milk.
