Hi, I've got a female french toy who is about a year old and a male beagle who is 7 months, I found them tied. Is she pregnant?

Please consult your vet regarding your options immediately. If her eggs do become fertilized, this could be a very dangerous pregnancy for Coco, as she is so small and the male dog is so big. The puppies would likely be so big that she may need a c-section to give birth, and the pregnancy could be life-threatening.
