Thank you for submitting your question regarding Ani. I recommend making her an appointment to see her veterinarian to determine if she is pregnant or not. After approximately 45-50 days of pregnancy, the fetal skeletons are mineralized and will show up on an x-ray. This will not only confirm pregnancy, but allow you to know how many puppies she is expecting. This is valuable information during delivery to know if she has had all the pups or is experiencing a problem. I hope this information helps!
