It is possible that Billo is actually having a false pregnancy and is not actually pregnant. A false pregnancy is where the body thinks it is pregnant and starts acting like it but there is actually NO pregnancy. I would recommend having the male dogs sperm evaluated to make sure it is a good sample and take Billo to a vet to see why she might not be getting pregnant if you want her to be. Hope the that helps
