No a dog can't get pregnant if it is not in heat. If she was being "humped" when she was in heat then she's pregnant. You should really get he spayed. If you are not experienced at all I think you wouldn't know how to take care of puppies. And female dogs are a lot healthier when they are spayed. There are all kinds of cancer they can get if they're not spayed. And you will have male dogs all over your house. The age of the male doesn't matter.

If she is 9 months old, she is old enough to be spayed! And yes, in the meantime, she can mate with other dogs, even though she will only get pregnant during her heat. However, she probably won't want to mate with the male dog UNLESS she's in heat. If the min pin. is 2 1/2 years old, then he is definitely old enough to get her pregnant.
The humping is a dominance behavior. It has nothing to do with mating. She is trying to prove that she is "bigger and better", and is higher up in the pack status.
I am glad to hear that you're planning on getting her spayed. Until that time comes, please keep her away from male dogs, just as a precaution.

So I'll answer your question without the breeding b.s.!! No she will not have "sex" with another dog if she is not in heat!!! Sometimes dogs just hump things. I don't know why and don't care to know why. If she were in heat she would "stand" for any male that was interested. I don't think it matters how old the male is from what I understand. If he is male he can do the deed. Hope that this answered your question correctly. And that's the reason I get my animals altered so I don't have to go through this with them. LOL
Let the thumbs down begin!!!

If she is old enough to go into heat then she is old enough to conceive, and a 2 yr old Min Pin is certainly old enough to get the job done. That said, she is too young to have puppies safely and you don't seem to have much clue about breeding...so you shouldn't BE breeding. Get your little girl spayed, and maybe the person who owns the Min Pin needs to get his/her dog neutered...nobody needs an unaltered male dog running around, and there are enough unwanted puppies in the world already. She can and should be spayed right away, though some vets will charge a few extra $$'s to spay a dog just coming out of heat, since the surgery is more complicated...If she and the male dog were together you can assume she is bred, and spaying her immediately will prevent yet another unwanted litter.
** Note to Purebred...there most certainly are such things as Miniature Pincher's. They are a breed and they are recognized by AKC and CKC

This is way to young she should be at least 2 years old her 2nd-3rd heat over 1/2 of the chihuahuas needs c-section to give birth to full chihuahua if she is mixed with other breed she will die in labor if you dont do a plan c-section($1,200) so it will be best if you have her spayed now

Maybe its just me but I think the title and the question dont match. If I disregard the title completely it appears that you are asking whether or not she can have sex now that she isnt in heat? Can she have sex, not in heat, between now and the time she gets spayed without getting pregnant?- that is how I read the question.
You may want to add or edit to be more clear.
I personally see no need for her to be having sex - concentrate on taking care of her other needs. Schedule the spay.

Usually if a female is not in heat she will not let the male mount her. If she does she may still be in but on her way out and in that case she can get pregnant. If you just want to appease her (which is what I do with my "excited" female) let her meet up with a neutered male. They don't have the exact equipment anymore but still have the urge. It also cuts down on the chances of her running off to find her own.

Did you know that a female dog that is not spayed is at a greater risk of getting cancer and STDs. The best thing you can do for your dog if you care about her at all is get her spayed.

Oh my...she is old enough to have her spayed so please make an appt. soon! She does not need to be around an unaltered male until she is sterilized (and not for 2-4 wks after). Then they can play together and she will still do this because she is trying to be the dominant dog - it has nothing to do with hormones.

Humping has nothing to do with sex at all, it is a bid/show of dominance.
No, your dog will not have sex with the MinPin (its a Min. Pinscher not a Min. Doberman) if she is not in heat.
Get her spayed and get both of you into some dog training for the dominance issues.
