Yes false preg is common, try not to rub the breast area as this stimulate more milk production. Some dogs have alot of nesting issues during this time, can be a pain. My Astra was like that until I spayed her. I would come home and she would have all the blankets and sheets off the bed and into a closet. You could only see her nose.
Always,

I'm curious...does this happen only to females that have had a previous litter or can it happen to one that has never been bred? Just wondering if there is a relationship to having raised a litter or can it be just instinct to want a litter. |

Hi Sue,
This can happen to any female that has not been spayed. It does not matter if they have had a litter or have been bred before and not taken. Even a female after her first heat can have a false preg. It all has to do with hormones.
Always,

This was my girl's first heat. In fact we never noticed that she had come in.
