When To Scan?
Scan 1 – Pregnancy Confirmation
During the crucial 30-35 day period following the last mating, we conduct the first scan, enabling us to confirm pregnancy, estimate the number of puppies, and establish the due date.
*Please note that the number of puppies provided is an estimate, as gestation sacs tend to hide behind one another, which may result in an unintentional duplication during the counting process.
Scan 2 – Detailed View
The optimal time for a rescan is at 50+ days gestation, allowing us to monitor the pregnancy’s progress closely and obtain a detailed view of the puppies. With each rescan, we provide delightful photos and videos via email, serving as a beautiful keepsake.
Scan 3 – Post Whelping
To further ensure your pet’s well-being, we offer a scan to confirm that the bitch has safely completed the birthing process and to check for any retained afterbirths, giving you added peace of mind.

What To Expect At The Appointment
Appointment length: your pet’s appointment is scheduled for an estimated time of 45 minutes.
Step 1
We care deeply about your pet’s comfort, which is why we make it a priority to establish a connection before starting the scan. By spending time with your pet, explaining the procedure, and addressing any concerns, we create a calm and comforting atmosphere.
Step 2
With the scanning equipment prepared, we’ll gently position your pet on a comfortable vet bed mat, concentrating on their stomach area. Your valuable assistance in keeping your pet in position throughout the scan ensures their stillness and relaxation. Based on their preference, your pet can either lie down on their back or stand up during the process.
Following that, we will ensure that your pet’s stomach area and the probe head are well-covered with ultrasound gel before commencing the scan.
Step 3
Throughout the scan, we will continuously optimize the scanner’s settings to ensure the best possible picture quality. Our examination will commence at your pet’s tail end, moving along the midline to thoroughly assess the interior, confirm pregnancy, and determine viability by identifying individual heartbeats.
Whenever possible, we will pause the screen to provide a detailed description of our findings. Furthermore, we can record cine clips to capture important moments and send them to you via email, along with any images obtained during the appointment.
Step 4
After completing the scan, we will take the necessary steps to remove any excess gel, minimizing the need for self-cleaning.
We will be ready to address any queries you might have and offer pregnancy and whelping advice if necessary.
Should the initial scan not show a positive result, we offer the possibility of a rescan. Within 7-10 days of the initial scan, you can take advantage of our discounted rescan service. Please note that the visibility of the pregnancy may become clearer as the gestation period reaches around 30 days.
