Rosie is back in the house as off heat. Gestation for a bitch is nine weeks, give a day or two each side of that for size of bitch and size of litter carrying. Smaller dogs tend to whelp earlier and larger breeds later, but also litter size is a factor. If carrying a small litter they tend to go later and big litters tend to arrive earlier. From Rosie's first mating nine weeks is the 1st April and from her last mating nine weeks is the 7th April. So now it is waiting and around 28 to 35 days from her last mating, I hopefully will be able to feel she is pregnant by palpation.  Rosie sleeps with her head resting on a sleeping Polly
