I know I have to wait 45 -55 days to find out my dog is pregnant but her nipples are getting bigher, is that a sign of early pregnancy? and Can I give a boiled egg for protein?

Nipples getting bigger can be a sign of pregnancy. If it's been at least three weeks since Chloe was mated, you can take her into the vet to have a blood test looking for the hormone relaxin. This is present when a dog is pregnant. Yes, you can give a boiled egg for protein, no shell. I hope this helps!
