Pregnant?
A dog's nipples may swell during of after her heat cycle. They can stay swollen for up to two weeks after her heat is finished. If they stay swollen longer than that, it's time to have her checked out by a vet.
well i am not sure but i think it is normal because my dog had pupps and she was fine my friend's dogs nipples were swollen !
I actually was wondering the same thing. I have a dog who is 11 months old and in her first heat. I called the vet because I was worried she may be pregnant when I noticed her nipples were swollen. I called my vet and they said it is normal during heat.
These are one of the cues that indicate a dog is in heat.

When a female Chihuahua is in heat, her body undergoes hormonal changes that can lead to the swelling of her nipples. This swelling is a natural response to the increase in estrogen and progesterone, preparing her body for a possible pregnancy. Additionally, the nipples may become more prominent as part of the overall reproductive cycle. If you have concerns about your dog's health, it's always best to consult a veterinarian.
No, If you are talking about a female dog which I assume your are, the dog's nipples should become more normal after it is able to go in heat and if that does not happen it, it will happen when the dog is pregnant It is the exact same way with humans.
I think that if there is something that you aren't sure about with your dog then you should take she/he to the vet. Did your female dog just have puppies?
Bitch is pregnant.
Yes, after heat cycles, a female dog's nipples usually return to their normal size and appearance. It is common for the nipples to swell and become more prominent during heat due to hormonal changes and increased blood flow to the area.
Your dog could be pregnant, or they could be going through a 'false pregnancy', which means they're showing all the signs of being pregnant, minus the puppies. The only way to be sure is to take your dog to the vet.
This is a sign that your dog is in heat.
