It turns out maternity photos aren’t just for humans. One pregnant dog is winning over the internet by sharing her growing baby bump in an irresistibly cute video. As she inches closer to meeting her litter, her owner captures each belly pop, creating a beautiful record of this special time.
Dog shares a look at her growing baby bump in viral video
Pixie, a Miniature Dachshund, is expecting puppies, and her owner has been sharing the progress of her pregnancy on the Instagram account @raws_doxies. In the latest video, viewers get a glimpse of Pixie’s growing belly through a montage of short clips taken over the course of her pregnancy. The video begins with the text, “Watch my belly grow.”
The video features Pixie lounging comfortably on a couch as her baby bump becomes more visible with each passing day. The days of her pregnancy are marked on a sticky note frame next to her, showing her gradual transformation. By the end, the caption changes to, “Ready for my babies,” as Pixie looks calm but clearly nearing delivery.
The comments reflect a mix of admiration, empathy, and excitement for the little dog’s upcoming transition into motherhood. One person wrote, “She has a pregnancy glow,” acknowledging how healthy and content Pixie looks throughout the video. Another viewer noted the realism of the experience, commenting, “The breathing heavier as she gets bigger is so real.” Perhaps the most touching reaction came from someone who simply said, “I’m going to cry she’s going to be a wonderful mom!!”
Pregnancy in dogs usually lasts around 58 to 68 days or roughly nine weeks. Because of this short timeline, changes happen quickly, and you’ll need to be attentive to your dog’s needs. Proper prenatal care includes high-quality food, vet checkups, and minimizing stress. In the final days, expectant mothers often become more tired and may seek quiet spaces to prepare for labor. As such, providing a warm and secure area for delivery can help your pooch feel safe when it’s time to welcome her puppies.
