Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! No that isn't a normal sign in early pregnancy. I would expect close to birth when the dog is heavy with puppies there can be a change in breathing. If Ash is active, eating/drinking, not lethargic, isn't vomiting or having diarrhea I think she is likely fine. This could all be due to the hot weather if you are experiencing that. If it is cool and this is new then having her examined by your Vet Monday isn't a wrong thing to do. Good luck!
