Pregnant Peekapoo?

Question
I have 2 Peekapoos (male 1 yr/female 3 yrs). About a month ago she was in heat. We are not sure if they mated, but she is acting uncharacteristically grouchy and seems to be sleeping a lot. I do not see a tummy yet, but being that they are small (8 lbs.), I'm not sure I would. Is this a possible sign that she is pregnant. Thanks

Answer
This is not anything that my bitches have ever done, but they are all individuals. The only way to be sure (other than time) is to take her into your veterinarian and have her examined. If she is pregnant, she needs to have plenty of exercise, rather than sleeping a lot. Whelping can be hard work.
