Learn to Recognize False Pregnancy in Dogs Symptoms

Female dogs have to go through menstrual periods twice a year or you can say estrus cycle where their bodies have to go trough menstrual periods that can result in pregnancy if the dog has mated with a male dog. In some cases, if your female dog doesn’t mate with other male dog, its female hormones can mimic pregnancy which we usually call as pseudocyesis or in simple terms “false pregnancy”.

So, is your dog experiencing this? In this article, we’ll tell you about several false pregnancy in dogs symptoms so that you know when your dog is having it.

1. First symptom if your dog is experiencing false pregnancy would be your dog doesn’t eat and drink as much as she should be.

2. Is your dog lactating? One of most common symptoms of false pregnancy is when your dog producing milk even when no pregnancy is present. You’ll notice enlarged mammary glands and swollen teats due to her hormones.

3. You need to check her abdomen for swelling, gently, because her body will mimic everything related to pregnancy. Yes these hormones make her body to function all signs that indicate pregnancy, although your dog belly won’t be as big as a female dog that is actually pregnant.

4. One of natural instincts of pregnant dog is nesting. Do you see this sign? When your dog starts to collect her blankets, toys or rug in the corner of the room, or building her own cozy spot, that mean she’s read to take care her babies.

5. The other common instinct would be carrying stuffed toys or other small items as if they are puppies. Carrying stuffed toys around it’s the result of her emotional stress due to false pregnancy. She’s trying to use small items to replace her missing pups.

At this moment, your dog is experiencing what we call psychological distress which can affect her appetite and activity. She’s no longer interested in eating her favorite food or treats, or becomes less interested in playing fetch (dog’s most favorite game). If you don’t plan to breed your dog, the best thing you can do to help her is to have her spayed.

Top 5 Positive Aspects of Having a Reptile as a Pet

Most parents are usually glad when their children choose to have a reptile as their first pet. Why? because reptiles are easier to maintain, unlike dogs or cats. If you watched Parenthood in the episode where Max chose a turtle to be his first pet, his father almost jumped in joy and whispered to his mom “ok good choice, turtle, easy to maintain”. Reptiles are exotic animals although compared to dogs, they have less fans, still you will find there are many positive aspects of having a reptile as a pet.

Just like other pets, you need to prepare a suitable habitat for your reptile, you can checkout our reptile supplies category to find affordable and high functional products. We also realize that many of you probably choose reptile as pet because your children ask you to. Please remember your children are still at the stage of learning to be responsible to their pet, in the end, you are the one who should be responsible for the reptile’s daily care, you need to participate in feeding, training and supervising your children reptile pet.

Here are Top 5 Positive aspects of having a reptile as a pet:

1. Low Maintenance and Responsibility
Isn’t it obvious? Just like we have explained above, having a reptile as a pet means you don’t need to walk your pet outside the house or clean its mess since your reptile will stay inside its habitat. Unlike dogs or cats that probably run loose inside your house.

2. Long lifespan
Most reptiles live longer than 15 years, but it depends on the breed as well. Do you know turtles have average lifespan of 50-100 years? Yes, they do live that long, unless you don’t provide proper care for them.

3. Skill to adapt\to its habitats
Reptiles’ skill to adapt to a wide range of habitat is very impressive. They are cold blooded animals (it doesn’t mean that they are cruel, it’s just their lifestyle) that can live high in mountains or below sea level. You will also find there are many reptiles live in desert.

4. Training
Reptiles can be trained to have good behavior. Just like mammals, they can recognize smell, voice and people. So, if you know how to train your reptile, then this ability is certainly one of positive aspects of having a reptile as a pet.

5. Low Cost
Most reptiles’ supplies are cheap. That’s why most people consider that reptile is a great pet for beginner pet owner like children. Reptiles basic needs such as food, habitat and accessories won’t cost you as much as if you had a mammal pet.

Those 5 positive aspects of having a reptile as a pet look pretty amazing right? However, being cheap, we really sad that most people consider reptiles are disposable. You need to teach your children to be responsible for their pet, because they need to learn to appreciate other living creatures. If you are interested to become a reptile owner then you should learn more about its environment, behavior, proper habitat and reproductive strategy. In this way, you can provide proper care and ensure your reptile’s health and happiness.
