Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female
I think my dog is pregnant, she has put on weight and her tits have gotten bigger. When i rub her belly it feels like pups are in there. When i can feel them how much longer before she gives birth?

You can feel the puppies typically around the 6th week of pregnancy (days 35-42), but she could be further along than that. A dog's typical gestation length is 58-68 days. I would have Chloe seen by a vet to have her pregnancy confirmed, and the vet can do x-rays or an ultrasound to see how far along she is in her pregnancy.
