You would know for sure through a vetinary blood test. What would make you suspicious would be increased thirst, increased urination, unexplained weight-loss, and the start of cataracts/blindness.
Dogs do get diabetes, but i don't know if your dog has it.

Yes, any dog can have diabetes.
I don't know about a pregnant dog, but urine leakage is a sign of diabetes, get a bottle of diastix glucose test strips and test her urine.
Diabetes
Clinical signs of diabetes include: - increased urinating and increased water intake - increased appetite - weight loss - cataracts - signs of ketoacidosis (vomiting, diarrhoea, anorexia, stupor, coma) If you suspect diabetes, take your dog to the vet. They can perform a blood glucose test as a relatively simple first step to diagnosing diabetes.
if someone has diabetes, that means that their pancreas has stopped working. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, and if his/her pancreas has stopped working than that is what they need. They make the fake Insulin using Insulin from the dog. They only use a certain dog, but I do not know which type, sorry.
My dog licks my legs and my daughters. We both have diabetes. He doesn't lick anyone else's body. Must be something related.
If they don't know that they have diabetes then how can you come up with a statistic?
I am sure that you can find dog food brands which do sell foods for dogs who have diabetes. I would suggest trying iams or purina one for these foods.
