A lack of appetite is usually one of the earliest signs that your dog might be pregnant. Not all females go through this doggie version of morning sickness, but a small percentage of dogs will eat less during the first few weeks of gestation and will usually make up for it later in the pregnancy.
The dog's pregnancy will last between 58-68 days, with 63 days being the norm. One of the first ways that you can tell that your female is pregnant is to look at her abdomen. The stomach area will swell and depending on the size of the litter, will be quite larger than usual as the pregnancy progresses.
