Can my dog lactate in heat?

Question

Or is there any way she could just be lactating because she's about to go into heat. I don't know how she could've gotten pregnant... It seems nearly impossible but sure enough there's milk.

Answer 1

Its not that uncommon for dogs to have false pregnancy's. But on the other hand if she's lactating and bleeding at the same time I would be concerned about infection.  But sometimes its hard to notice your dogs pregnant because they are only pregnant for about 2 months.  

Answer 2

My dogs have not done that...

his is my standard answer and meant for information to get resources to you for your dog. Not meant to offend just to save time!

Okay you don't know if dog is in heat, how often, or what to do, or you think your dog is pregnant, when its ready to give birth etc etc etc ?

If you are asking this question you MUST read up and have material on hand and if your dog gives birth.  If you are in time sensitive situation  check your library or local bookstore!

This book is a good one.

YOU NEED to get educated and FAST as pregnancies are only 63 days and it GOES fast.Build a list of three books and go pick them up locally or order from my site which whatever.If your dog is birthing or just given birth it is not to late as the best books deal with care afterwards of mom and pups.

Just get some material to have on hand! Find a mentor in real life someone that has gone through this before.
