My dog in heat saw a male dog. Is she pregnant or bred?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Female | unspayed | 6 months and 5 days old | 50 lbs

My dog came into heat and my dad just saw a male dog at our house and I looked at my female and she had a very small drop of blood on her privates. I need to know if she’s bred?!

I think it is a very high likelihood that she has been bred. An examination in 1-2 weeks may be an appropriate time for the veterinarian to be able to palpate small feti.
Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
