important information
dogs
When they can be pregnancy scanned
Dogs can usually be pregnancy scanned from around 30 days after mating. At this stage, the foetuses are large enough to detect using ultrasound, and the technician can confirm pregnancy with good accuracy. Scanning earlier than 25 days may give unreliable results, as the embryos are very small.
Why it’s important
Pregnancy scanning in dogs helps breeders and pet owners confirm whether a mating was successful and how the pregnancy is progressing. It also allows the vet or technician to assess the number and health of the puppies, though an exact count can be difficult due to foetal positioning.
Benefits for pet owners
- Confirms pregnancy early, avoiding uncertainty.
- Allows proper nutrition and health management during gestation.
- Helps plan for whelping (birth) — preparing suitable facilities and support.
- Identifies false pregnancies or reproductive issues early.
- Provides reassurance about the mother’s wellbeing and development of the litter.
Gestation period
The gestation period for dogs is around 63 days (about 9 weeks).
please ensure to clean the baby oil off the applied area ASAP using warm soapy water to avoid health problems for your pet.
Cats
When they can be pregnancy scanned
Cats can generally be scanned from around 30 days after mating. At this stage, pregnancy can be detected using ultrasound technology. Scanning earlier than 25 days may give unreliable results, as the embryos are very small and could be 're-absorbed"
Why it’s important
Pregnancy scanning in cats allows owners and breeders to confirm conception, monitor foetal development, and check for any complications. It also helps determine whether the queen (female cat) is carrying a normal, healthy litter.
Benefits for pet owners
- Confirms pregnancy and litter size early on.
- Supports better nutrition and care for the pregnant cat.
- Helps prepare for queening (birth) and kitten care in advance.
- Detects reabsorption or failed pregnancies promptly.
- Offers peace of mind and enables responsible breeding management.
Gestation period
The gestation period for cats is approximately 63 to 66 days (about 9 weeks).
please ensure to clean the baby oil off the applied area ASAP using warm soapy water to avoid health problems for your pet.
