this is the first time my dog echo (thats her name) is pregnant and it was planned and i have no experienced in this what so ever anyone. I didnt relized she was pregnate intill the middle of november when she stopped eatting due to morning sickness, we figure out that she must of got pregnant around october 23 2007. My question is where would i feel for the movement of the puppies because i put my hand everywhere that i could on her body to feel the pups but i had no luck, her boobs seem to be big and hard and some people say it look like she has something called milkbags underneath her hangs really low to the floor and is hard like a rock is that where i would feel for the pups or somewhere else and what would i need besides a whelping box for when she is ready to deilver. Oh and she is a akita and german shepherd but she looks more like a akita

a planned mating and you have no idea what you are doing?
When the pups have all found new forever home, please get your dog spayed. Leave the breeding to the professionals. MILLIONS (yes, millions) of dogs are euthanized each year because of people like you.

You planned this, but do not know when she got pregnant? That doesn't make a lot of sense. Anyway, do not try to feel for the pups, you could hurt her or the pups in doing so. There is a ton of information on the internet...Google this subject and get as much information as you can so that you are prepared when she is ready to deliver. You really should take her to a vet for a check up, she needs extra care during her pregnancy and sounds like you have no idea about what to do...so let the professionals help! She is going to need added calcium at the end of her pregnancy, however, you don't know when that would be since you don't know when she got pregnant. Please Please take her to a vet! Thanks...and I wish your dog the best!

1. You PLANNED your dogs pregnancy without knowing what to expect?
2. Why the hell would you intentionally allow your MUTT to get pregnant when there are hundreds of thousands of puppies and dogs who die every day in shelters across America? You're probably thinking, "Oh but I'll find homes for these puppies!" Well congratulations: you're stealing homes from puppies in shelters and are directly responsible for as many deaths.
3. By allowing your dog to breed you have increased her chances of cancer as well as forcing her to endure the risks of raising those young. Get her spayed!

If this was planned, then I would think that this research would already be done.
Have her seen by your vet and have them go through everything with you.
While you're there, make an appointment to have her spayed in 3 months.

Please contact your VET.
Your poor poor dog.
Next time be a bit more responsible eh? Get her spayed when and if she lives through this.
