Answer #3

harleyrider is correct, I just assumed your vet meant an ultrasound.

Answer #4

Not really a puppy but can typically see the sacs.

Answer #5

Any GOOD vet will not do x-rays until about 59 days into gestation. They only carry for 63 days. Anything early then that could harm the puppies. If the dog is about 40 days into gestation the best thing to get done is a ultrasound.
