False pregnancy... also known as Pseudocyesis. We went through something similar with our dog when we didn't get her spayed. She actually thought she was pregnant, and as you said, started lactating, too!
She treated her toys as the puppies, and snuggled with them, nested, and licked them alot. The vet explained that it was definitely time to get her fixed! I would think that if your female isn't fixed that this is probably what is going on with her!
Poor thing! Here is some info about it: TREATMENT If symptoms are mild, treatment is unnecessary as the condition resolves within 3 weeks. It may be tempting to put warm compresses on the breasts or wrap them to prevent milk leakage causing stains in the house.It is important to remember that any touching of the mammary tissue is what stimulates milk production so it is important to minimize tactile stimulation.
If the female is licking herself, she may need an Elizabethan collar to minimize stimulation. marvistavet.com/html/body_canine_false_p... *Poppet*'s Recommendations 100 ct Gridlock Puppy Training Wee Wee pads 24" x 24" Amazon List Price: $42.99 Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (based on 3 reviews) .
False Pregnancy It's called a false pregnancy, and while it may seem cute, you probably need to separate these two dogs. Nothing can start a deadlier fight amongst 2 bitches than a fight over their young. Females that go through false pregnancies sometimes go all the way through a false whelping, and yes, they canand often do get milk as well.
False pregnancies are psychologically very hard on the dog, and the dog can suffer from severe depression as a result. Also, dogs that go through false pregnancies tend to have a much higher rate of pyometra, a deadly uterine infection that comes on suddenly, and can kill a dog very quickly if not treated immediately with surgery. I highly recommend spaying a female that has had a false pregnancy..
Maternal sympathy She is suffering a phantom pregnancy. Obviously that mothering instinct is in her and she desperately wants to fulfill that. But, she should not be allowed near the real mother's pups, or this may stress the mum into losing her milk, reject her pups or fight with Chickie and may cause injury.
You could keep them seperated and only allow them outside at alternating intervals and feed them seperately. Your vet could prescribe something to dry her milk or even to settle her down so she loses interest by herself. The other alternative is to allow her to have a litter of her own.
This is only if it's practical. If one litter of pups is too hard to house, then maybe another might not be such a good idea. Perhaps you could try asking your local animal shelter workers or a dog breeder for advice.
We had a story with one of our dogs, only the real mother died during labour, and our other dog, overnight, started to produce milk and took the pups as her own and raised them very well. We were stunned. I'm sorry I can't offer more help, but I hope you can figure it out with Blossom and Chickie peacefully..
My 2 y/o female multipoo want to attact other dogs, she is not sociable at all. " "Why won't our three year old dogs mate? The female always encourages our male, but it's like he doesn't know what to do?" "Who let the dogs out?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
