Almost all ties end in a pregnancy. You should see a vet at 6, 7 and 8 weeks or so for prenatal care. You need to keep the dog well fed and wormed.

If she tied 4 times you can assume she is pregnant.
You can have the vet palpate at about day 28 after the breeding, or do an ultrasound.... or simply wait until she looks like she's getting a bit chubby around the middle and nippley.
Day 57 from the breeding schedule an x-ray to determine the number of pups, as well as the degree of calcification (which can tell you how far off birth is).
Start researching whelping pups NOW!
Start saving your money just in case she needs a c-section (plus shots, worming and feeding pup is expensive). Start saving your vacation time so you can be home with her when she gives birth.
Or just get her spayed next week and save yourself a lot of work.

wait about 4 weeks and take to the vets for an ultrasound.

"Got stuck 4 times"? You sound like you don't have the first clue about breeding, please have your dog desexed as soon as you can. Breeding a litter is expensive, they need lots of time and lots of medical care. Plus the world doesn't need more puppies. Take your dog to the vet, please.

You could bring her to the vet and have her spayed. They'll tell you if she was pregnant.
If you don't know this answer, then please don't breed your dog. Millions of animals, yes, even purebreds, are killed in shelters each year. Don't violate the AKC guidelines and breed for greed. I know you aren't that stupid and heartless.
