Is this your 18 month old husky that you force to live outside on a chain 24 hours a day? I guess you'll know in 63 days. But, I sincerely hope that she isn't. Shame on your for continuing to try to breed her so that you can make some money. You disgust me in so many ways. You are everything that animal welfare groups, rescue groups, and responsible breeders hate in a person.

A really experienced vet can palpate as early as two weeks and let you know. Most aren't this good but can palpate at 3-4 weeks and let you know. If they aren't experienced, don't let them do this as they can hurt the puppies if there are any. You can have a sonogram done after 28 days to see if there are any babies and get a rough estimate of the number. Counting with sonograms is not usually very accurate. After the seventh week, you can safely x-ray to see if there are babies and get a fairly accurate count (+/- 1 puppy with a good vet). I personally do not feel comfortable x-raying pregnant animals unless I suspect a problem but that is for you and your vet to decide. Alot of people get the x-rays and everything is just fine. Do your own research and decide for yourself whether you'd like x-rays or not. The website below will let you know exactly what is going on with the puppies during the pregnancy. Put in date breeding took place if you want but it isn't required.

Im sure you will see behavior difference. Look for that. Some animals also get very sensitive (if they are pregnant) when you touch their belly. Be careful though.

Her puppies will show up on x-ray around day 45 after conception

the only way I think you can find out is the vet, or maybe her behavior.
