QuestionHello, my 7 lbs Yorkie is 50 days after mating with 3-4 lbs Yorkie. She has all signs of pregnancy, but her belly is not big, just a little swollen and she is wider than before. I would like to know if the reason for small belly is that puppies are small like father or carried high in rib cage. She also doesnt eat much, her behavior is very strange like one part of her wants to eat and other doesnt. Thank you for answer.
AnswerHi Martina
There can be a number of reasons for a small belly. You are right about where she's carrying, size of the pups, or if she's carrying a singleton.
As with humans, a females taste can change with pregnancy. You may want to try her on a different kibble.
Good luck
