Answer
Hi Jennifer. It's super hard to tell for sure if a dog is pregnant or not, especially this early. She's only about 19 days in. She very well could be, or she may be having a false pregnancy. That's why it's so hard to tell for sure because a false pregnancy mimics a real one. You can have x-rays done on day 50 to tell you for sure. And sadly, they don't have pregnancy tests for dogs like they do for humans. At least not good ones. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you for sure. You'll just have to wait her out. :-)
