My mum had the same thing with my nans dog when she was pregnant with me!
My aunties female dog labrador quite nervous normally barks when you go round hers and hides away but when i went round it didnt bark instead it ran up to me and laid near my feet and kept staring at me, my auntie doesnt know im pregnant yet so she thought the dog was acting strange and shut it out in the garden, the dog then jumped up at the door and undone the handle ran in and kept trying to lick me!

Oh yeah, they know. And be prepared to get tired of it! One of my dogs constantly needs to lay on my stomach. I only have a couple weeks to go, and am so glad because he won't leave me alone! Your hormones have changed and they sense that. Just make sure your dog doesn't go overboard. I know it got to the point with me that he wouldn't let my boyfriend sit with me, unless he was sitting inbetween us. You want to break all bad habits before they really form. Read plenty of books because this protective behavior will continue. And he may become jealous when baby comes home. There are a lot of great solutions for all of this! Congrats and good luck!

They dont know you are due a baby at the end of 9 mnts
but Dogs can detect differences in your mood, posture, behavior, and body chemistry that clue them in to the enormous changes you're going through.

Your pheromones smell different when you're pregnant. There are a lot of physiological changes in a woman when she becomes pregnant, and some of these can manifest themselves in the smell. Dogs are pretty keen on that front.

They can tell...my friend had a viscious rottweiller (female) and when my sister was pregnant the dog would sit by her feet and gaze up at her...she would not leave my sisters side and when any man came near she would growl at them.

yeah, i think so, coz when everytime i go to my friends house, her dog always stand up and want to hug me, sometimes she will even jump on me, but the strange things when i was pregnant, her dog just sit beside me and lick my leg and hand, suddenly she turn to very gentle to me, until now, here she back to jump on me, gosh......

yes they can, my mums dog would always want to lay on me and just wanted to rest with me all the time. She usually wouldnt come near me unless i called her or started patting her.

many people think dogs can tell when people are pregnant. a friend of mine is pregnant and her husband said that their dog acted very protective of her and they thought it was very odd, it was before they even knew she was pregnant.
