Bichon Frise pregnancy

Question
My Bichon is showing many signs of pregnancy such as eating more, nipples are more swollen and her behavior is totally different than usual. What is throwing me off is that her belly is not tight. 63 days will be in about 10-12 days. She has gained about 6-7 pounds since the time we think she was bred. Is it possible that she is pregnant without having a tight belly??

Thanks for your time, Robert

Answer
Hi Robert

Did you witness a breeding?  What day in her season was she bred?  How large/small was the male she was bred with?

If she's carrying a singleton, you may not notice. If however, she's having a false pregnancy, all the signs are the same, without the end result.

I would take her into the vet for x-rays to be certain that your are expecting.

Good luck
