Answer
Hi Gwyn

Did you do x-ray's or ultrasound?  X-rays aren't accurate until after calcification of bones occur at around day 50.  

False pregnancy is very common in dogs. With the false pregnancy they go through all the hormonal changes right up to producing milk.  

It's always advisable that before you consider breeding, that you give both the sire and dam a weeks worth of amoxicilian to clear up any minor infection that could cause complications.
