Howdy. Esther here.
Gentlemen, if you're weirded out by lady stuff, please move along. Ok then. Well I'm getting my potential puppy making stuff removed tomorrow. I don't know what to think. I already went through my first "season" and now they say it's time. I hope they're nice to me. As an added bonus, they are also going to clean my teeth while I'm under. I'm only 1-1/2 but my teeth are FUNKY. Maybe from that brown water mom and dad said they had at the hotel they stayed at when they came to get me! Ha! Ok so this is a delicate matter. I wonder if it has something to do with my heat being over. My, a-hem, bewbies are awfully big. The breeder lady said, no I'd never had pups. But they seem bigger than other folks. Is this due to my heat? I've been out for like 2-3 weeks. Or are some girls puppy-milk-givers just bigger? I'm only the third basset my peeps have ever had and the second girl. Just curious. It doesn't really matter because I'm gorgeous anyway, but I was wondering if the size varies with my changing seasons. Or if my spay will change something. We don't know what to expect. Bye and hope I haven't embarassed anyone. E |

They do often get bigger after a season, especially if she has a false pregnancy.
It really depends on the dog if they stay large or not. I've had girls spayed after a litter and they went back as if they'd never had pups, others look like puppymill refugees even though they've never had a litter. People always asked me how many litters Chili had had, even before she was ever bred.

also I apologize for not having searched the site better for my answers.
I ran a google search on false pregnancies as they relate specifically to bassets and found several things linked to this very site. from soundtrack even. ha so thanks for taking the time to re-address this with me. (my boobs hurt) |

Esther, I think this is the best way to spell this word! I'm going to imagine this spelling every time I think of this word. It cracked me up! But good luck on your spaying. Whines of sympathy from Doppler and Virga.

Anabelle had one or many real preganancies and her "nips" were gigantic when we adopted her. Her last pregnancy was 4 months before that. Now that she has been spayed for a year and 4 months I've noticed a significant reduction in their size. They also changed color a few times which I found odd. I would say from the time we adopted her to now they are probably about 1/3 of their original size.

After a spay many changes can take place because they are no longer producing the hormones which may account for the size and color of the bewbees.My Esa has gone through a false pregnancy everytime she has been in heat,since she was 6 months old ,she just turned 4 this month.She would have milk after the 63 day gestation period was up which has caused her bewbees to become somewhat saggy. I'm sure she will need a bewbee lift if she is pregnant at this time.LOL
