If she was in heat and tied with a male, then it is very likely she is pregnant, however it would be best to confirm the pregnancy with your local veterinarian. They can examine Ammey, and confirm pregnancy/rule out anything such as pseudopregnancy. If she is pregnant, starting her on a puppy formulation will help ensure she is getting enough nutrition both for herself and for any puppies growing.
