My dog has known since i found out at a few weeks. She's very cuddly to e n lays her head on my belly and she's already very attached to me but its really bad n just getting worse but shes my cuddle bug even tho she a boxer. :) but her face just makes me melt after a long day at work.i cant wait to have my lil one to cuddle all together.ive also kept a baby around that cries to get her used me holding a baby n she doesn't leave my side when that doll is in my arms. N if i put it down thats where she is. Shes gonna ve one protective boxer over the bby more than she is with me now.

My dad has 2 chihuahuas abd the male one is kinda crazy....whenever anyone comes IN the house he doesnt bark or anything...but when they get up to leave...he attacks! He will follow you to the door barking and trying to bite your feet...well I noticed the last time I went to visit my dad...he didnt even try to bark when I went to leave....and the female one kept jumping in my lap to sit with me!!!!

I don't know if my dog can sense it... i have 3, but only 1 usually cuddles, the other one likes hard wood floors, and the third isnt a lap dog by any means lol. But my dog will stand on my belly or lay on it, but if the baby starts moving it creeps him out and he wont come to me for a couple hours... i wish they knew it was a baby... i need smarter pups!

I wouldn't be at all surprised if they can smell the chemical changes in your body if you are pregnant.  

On the other hand, I wouldn't use this as a pregnancy test.  lol
