The hormonal cycle of the bitch assumes that pregnancy has occurred after every cycle, whether or not a mating has taken place. She will therefore experience the physiological changes of pregnancy over the next 2 months. She will have an increase in progesterone production, milk production and an increase in appetite. She may even go into mild labour.
The caregiver may notice physical and emotional changes, particularly 8-9 weeks after her last season. She may exhibit a change in preferred diet to blander food, fluid retention, and a wish not to take her usual amount of exercise, and she may hoard toys and treat them as puppies. There may be restlessness, lack of appetite, panting, trembling, whining and nest-building at the time she would have given birth. There may be a degree of aggression to perceived threats. She will usually return to normal after 2-3 weeks, 48hrs after the birth would have occurred.
As this is a physiological occurrence which settles over 2-3 weeks, treatment is rarely needed. If possible try to reduce stimulation of the mammary glands, by reducing stroking and wiping, and not allowing the bitch to lick excessively, as these will increase prolactin release and further milk production.
Occasionally the bitch may become ill, by producing excessive milk, or other problems. She may need treatment to reduce milk production, such as diuretics or hormone treatment. Although some advocate reduced fluid intake to induce dehydration and reduce milk production, others feel that this may be unsafe.
It is rare (but not unknown) for bitches who are spayed (ovariohysterectomised), to exhibit these changes. Although the majority of the hormones are being produced by the ovaries, some are produced in the adrenal glands.
if the dogs titties get big but aren't filling with anything or at least that's what i noticed when my dog was having a fantasy pregnancy.
It is not possible to get pregnancy from the dog to human female. Chromosomes do not allow such pregnancy to take place.
No thereis no such thing as a pregnancy test for dogs that you can buy, and no a human pregnancy test will not work

No, there is no shot you can give a dog to abort their pregnancy.
No, a dog's stomach does not get smaller after a false pregnancy. It remains the same.
If your 7 year old dog is an unneutered male and your four year old dog is an unspayed female, the answer is a definite yes. Getting one of them "fixed" as well as carefully keeping females that are in season away from males that have not been neutered or otherwise made sterile, will prevent a pregnancy.
dont get a male dog

Okay, a dog can pee on a pregnancy stick but sometimes it might fail/not be true but most times it is to yes a dog can pee on a pregnancy stick.
