Q. We haven't gotten her spayed. I've done some researching online and I think she's going through a false pregnancy. However, her swollen breast isn't painful, it's just very big. We have been trying to save enough up to take her to the vet, but I'm just wondering how much it would to be to help her.
A. Why don't you try holding warm compresses on her swollen mammary gland to see if you can help it drain.
Maybe someone on here knows something you can give her to dry up her milk which is probably what the issue is.I had a dog who was spayed and still went through several false pregnancies.her milk just dissolved after a few days but she didn't get very swollen.You dog could have an infection which is why I suggested warm compresses.

How long does a false pregnancy present in Chihuahuas?
Q. Does the false pregnancy present full term or is there a point you can tell that they are actually pregnant?
If they are pregnant, how often should they go for walks and how long?
We have been to the vet since the assumed conception, but at that point our vet said the test would be unreliable.
We haven't gone back as of yet so I was looking for some insight in the meantime.
If I had wanted condescension about not knowing or having her spayed I would have asked a different question.

A. It can last as long as a pregnancy. Only way to know for sure is to go to the Vet and have a pregnancy test done.
How do you know if a rabbit has a false pregnancy?
Q. How do you know when your rabbit has a false pregnancy and when will she stop acting like she's pregnant?
A. A rabbit might go through a false pregnancy is she is bred to a buck but doesn't get pregnant or even if another female rabbit mounts her. Signs of pregnancy can include restlessness, increased appetite and digging in the cage, and throwing around bowls, toys, etc. Around the 18th day of a false pregnancy, your doe may carry hay and make a nest and pull fur from her chest and belly. This is a pretty good sign she's experienced a false pregnancy. She may be bred again after that.
A genuine pregnancy lasts approximately 31 days.

A. Some women believe without a doubt they are truly pregnant. Their bodies secrete hormones to physically mock a real pregnancy. They start to have symptoms that normal pregnant women have and some even believe they feel the "baby" moving. The aftermath usually results in the woman realizing she is not pregnant (which is hard since this condition is mainly mental), and may lead to medication, therapy, etc. Usually pregnancy tests and/or an ultrasound are ways used to show the woman she is not with child. Hope this helped.
