Alpaca Pregnancy Ultrasound Scans
November 29, 2025
We confirmed 8 pregnancies today in Maidstone, Kent. Most of them were between 50 – 70 days, and it is surprising how tiny the foetus still is even at that
I was lucky enough to scan a beautiful Stabyhoun today, at around 31 days pregnant. It is very difficult (and inadvisable) to estimate numbers with ultrasound, but we definitely saw four sacs altogether in a single shot, and quite possibly 3 separate ones closer to the bladder, so a safe number estimate would be anywhere from six upwards!
All the gestation sacs looked very healthy, with strong heartbeats seen in several puppies. It was also possible to obtain an umbilical Doppler trace.

Dolly attended ten days ago for a 25-day scan. 25 days is too early to confirm pregnancy for an owner, but in Dolly’s case, she was scanned on the understanding
Nala came for her pregnancy scan today. We saw at least 6 (probably 7) foetuses, at around six weeks of gestation.
