Unsure... help

[Nobas Mom]

Nope, Sadie has not gotten out of the yard at all... and there are no openings for any other dog to get in. The only dog she has had any contact to was Noba....

[luvofallhorses]

was Noba neutered when you guys went to visit Sadie?

[Nobas Mom]

Sadie lives with us now. Noba was neutered back in February and she had her heat cycle about a month ago...

[luvofallhorses]

I'd get her checked out. usually when dogs go into heat their nipples enlarge AND I'd get her spayed as soon as you can. how old is she and what breed is she?

[Nobas Mom]

She has been out of heat for two weeks and I just started noticing the milksacs looking like they are dropping. We had plans to get her fixed in the next month or so. She is almost 3 years old and a beagle / lab mix.

[luvofallhorses]

well I am glad she will be spayed soon.

Yes, Sadie could be having a false pregnancy. I would have the vet check her out as well. I doubt that the neutering did not work as they remove the testicles.

My dog went through a false pregnancy too and she laxtated and showed every sign of being pregnant and even got bigger. Just turned out when we went to see how many puppies she had there was none.

Even if she is pregnant, you can still spay her if she's still in the early stages. Dogs can indeed have false pregnancies and it isn't uncommon. To be on the safe side, though, I really recommend you spay her now. Many vet clinics can fit you in by the end of the week, so there is absolutely no reason not to spay her immediately.

ETA: And when a dog is neutered, the testicles are removed completely and the tubes connecting to the former testicles are tied so the chance of the dog procreating is almost non-existant.
