How Long Are Dogs Pregnant?

Dog pregnancy generally lasts around 63 days from ovulation, but the timing can vary. Calculating from the breeding date is less precise because conception does not necessarily occur on the day mating takes place.

Signs of Dog Pregnancy

Possible signs include changes in appetite, weight gain, enlarged mammary glands, behavioral changes, and abdominal enlargement. These signs can have other causes, so pregnancy should be confirmed by a veterinarian.
