How can you tell the difference between an actual pregnancy and a pseudo pregnancy in a dog?

Pregnancy
one_bad_deere asked:


We think our larger female dog might be pregnant by our tiny male dog. We were told the small dag was fixed before we got him, but found out too late that he hadn’t been. She’s lactating and has become some what cranky. Since the daddy is a small breed, we don’t expect her to get very big. Could this be a pseudo pregnancy? I was pregnant for about 3 months and misscarried. Right after I came home from the hospital is when she started lactating. Yes I know I should have had her fixed so please don’t post answers telling me something I all ready know. I got both my dogs from people who didn’t want them or didn’t have time to care for them. We know for a fact that she couldn’t haven been gotten by any neighboring dogs due to the fact she’s never outside without a leash. We would have had her fixed by now but I’m diabetic and in and out of the hospital and somehow manage to miss the chances to get her fixed.
Since we got him from family, we thought they were telling the truth and didn’t think they would lie about something like that. And since he was so fuzzy you couldn’t really tell without digging.
