My 9-month-old puppies mated and got stuck. Is she pregnant?

Hello, I caught my two small 9 month old puppies mating this morning and i freaked out. I believe my reaction scared them and they ended up stuck. After a few minutes I help them by separating them but I'm afraid i might of hurt them. I checked both and there is no bleeding or anything that looks abnormal. Just her area is swollen. What should I do? Should I be concerned?

I don't think there is anything that should be done really, i wouldn't be too concern about the incident itself but bear in mind there is a good chance that she is pregnant, which is a really bad idea if they are related. if you were considering having her spayed, it might be the time to have it done.
