When To Scan?
Scan 1 – Pregnancy Confirmation
The initial scan is typically conducted between 30-35 days from the last mating, serving to confirm pregnancy and providing an ideal opportunity to estimate the number of puppies and determine the due date.
*Please note that the indicated number of puppies is an estimation, considering the fact that gestation sacs often overlap, making it possible to inadvertently count them twice.
Scan 2 – Detailed View
Optimal for a rescan at 50+ days gestation, we assess the pregnancy’s progress and provide a detailed examination of the adorable puppies. As a special addition, we offer the delightful experience of receiving photos and videos through email, serving as a treasured keepsake.
Scan 3 – Post Whelping
Our commitment to your pet’s well-being extends beyond pregnancy. We offer a scan to ensure the bitch has completed the birth process and to confirm the absence of any retained afterbirths, providing you with added assurance.

What To Expect At The Appointment
Appointment length: please ensure that you have a window of 45 minutes available for your pet’s appointment.
Step 1
Prioritizing your pet’s well-being, we value the importance of creating a sense of ease. At the beginning of the appointment, we spend time with your pet, explaining the process, and addressing any questions to ensure a smooth and reassuring environment.
Step 2
The scanning process begins by gently placing your pet on a soft vet bed mat, focusing on their stomach area. We appreciate your help in keeping your pet still and relaxed throughout the scan. Whether your pet prefers lying down on their back or standing, we will accommodate their comfort during the procedure.
To ensure optimal scanning, we will coat your pet’s stomach area and the probe head with a generous amount of ultrasound gel before proceeding with the scan.
Step 3
Throughout the scan, we will fine-tune the scanner’s settings to maximize the clarity of the images. Starting from your pet’s tail end and proceeding along the midline, we will carefully inspect the interior, confirming pregnancy and assessing viability by detecting individual heartbeats.
If applicable, we will pause the screen to provide a visual explanation of our findings. We can also record cine clips to capture important moments and share them with you via email, along with any images obtained during the appointment.
Step 4
After finishing the scan, we will promptly wipe off any excess gel, minimizing the need for self-cleaning.
Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have, and we will provide you with information and advice on pregnancy and whelping, if needed.
In the event of a negative finding on the initial scan, we provide the opportunity for a rescan. You can schedule a discounted rescan within 7-10 days of the first appointment. Keep in mind that it may take until approximately the 30-day gestation period for the pregnancy to become more visible on the scan.
