The only way to know for sure Zyra is pregnant is have her seen by a vet in another couple of weeks for x-rays and a blood test looking for the hormone relaxin to confirm that she is pregnant. It is possible that she may not get pregnant off five stud sessions if she wasn't mated at the right time in her heat, but hopefully she is pregnant. It's lovely you want to be a vet! The best advice I can give you is to study really hard and get lots of animal experience in a vet's office. It's not an easy road to become a vet, it's a lot of time and hard work, but if you apply yourself and work for it, it can happen :-)
