Can ultrasound confirm pregnancy in dogs?

Published in Canine Pregnancy Diagnostics 1 min read

Yes, ultrasound can confirm pregnancy in dogs. Veterinarians can use ultrasound to detect developing embryos as early as three weeks post-breeding, but the most accurate confirmation typically occurs around 30 days post-breeding.

Ultrasound allows the veterinarian to visualize the embryos, confirm their viability, and estimate the number of puppies. It's a safe and non-invasive procedure that provides valuable information for monitoring the pregnancy and planning for the arrival of the puppies.
