What does it mean if your dogs nipples are getting bigger but her stomach is not growing?
She could be having a fantasy pregnancy! just like humans can have false periods and pregnancies. this is not unusual for chihuahuas my little girl had one last season. However do get her checked as she still could be pregnant, chihuahuas may not start to show straight away. it only takes 1 time and male dogs can smell a female on heat from up to 3 miles away!!

How much food should a 12 week miniature schnauzer puppy eat?
I have always allowed my dogs to self feed and have never had any problems with it. I put their dry dog food in a bowl on the floor next to their water dish. They eat whenever they're hungry. They usually eat the bowl of food by nibbling a little here or there and then eating the rest all at once after the family has had dinner. I refill the bowl whenever it's low, but they don't seem to care about it unless they're hungry. It can sit on the floor full for hours before they decide to take a nibble and then they'll eat a little and later they'll finish it. I prefer this method because they are not always begging and they are not gluttons like some dogs. They know that it's always there for them when they want it. My aunt feeds her poodle and bichon the same way. My dogs are 1) a purebred yellow lab AKC registered and 2) a mixed-breed mutt from the shelter. Good luck.

How do you certify the lineage of a dog?
The owner of a new purebred dog, by the standards of a particular hybrid breed of canine can request, by contacting the breeder where the purchase took place.
You can only certify a dogs lineage if it is papered and you have the papers. Then you request a full family tree on your dogs lineage from the breed registry. If your dog was not issued breed registration papers you will have a hard time doing any of that. This is usually done at the time of purchase, you should receive all information about your new dog or puppy.
Both parents must be registered with their breed registry (AKC, IDCR, etc.) including their breeding date and litters birth dates need to be sent off and registered with the breed club. Then the breeder receives papers for each pup to go with the pups when they go to their new homes. It is then up to the buyer to send in those papers before the dog turns 1 year old.
AKC is Internationally known.
Another answer from an official breeder in London
Official recognised papers can only be obtained via the breeder who must register the litter before 6 mths of age. Both parents must have been registered also with the kennel club in question.
I think Kittens. Yes kittens because they are cuter and tinier and softer and furrier, specially cute little sand kittens. Hoped I helped :)
