If a pregnant ***** starts showing early, is it a sign of a big litter, or could she just be gaining extra weight with all the food she consumes during that time period?
Please just honest answers, no insults, just wanted to know...

Um...it's hard to define "early" because I don't actually have anything to go by...I guess if I had to estimate what I mean I would say..showing at around maybe 37-40 days.

it is not true that because she "shows early " that she will have a big litter..
If she is already that far along they start showing about 5-6 weeks.. it all depends on the size of your dog too..
You can have an xray done also to determin the amount of puppies

They do not really start showing at all for the first 5-6 weeks. If she is a small dog bred to a larger male, it could mean the pups are way too big for her to carry. Even if it is a llarge litter you usually cannot tell anything until at least a month has passed. She may just be eating more/

I incredibly have a cocker spaniel too and it has the right comparable character as your pup too. Mine is now 3 years previous and gotten a lot extra beneficial yet even whilst it became 8 months previous, it enjoyed to play and specifically situations initiate a combat with an excellent larger canines in basic terms for relaxing. Even some days once I walk my canines (Charlie) it nevertheless tries to coach the different canines hes extra durable n larger n ought to attempt to start a combat with a larger canines. Its wide-spread - it incredibly is a healthful sign for a cocker spaniel. they're searching canines and that's in there characteristics. in basic terms some days a more desirable discipline would help right here and there. base line: Dont subject approximately it - thats your canines character and gets extra beneficial with age. include it :) God bless ?

It could be both, but if you really want to know you should get her takin to the vet.
I dont know I have never havin a pregnant dog,
but mabye they can make a pretty good prediction on how many puppys she's having,
or if she's gaining the weight from food.

how do you know she is pregnant? If you know when your dog was tied with the male, then you can count appx 63days.
