My Lab is pregnant, 1st heat, while on vacation! HELP!

Question:
 I'm scared my lab may be pregant! She went into heat early, in a bording kennel while I was on vactation. They denie this, of course, but I don't know what to do. I hate to ask this, but I was planning to breed her with another lab on her second heat, is there such thing as abortions for dogs? This is just so hard on me. Thanks for any advise you can give me. I will take her to the vet pretty soon here, but just wanted to know before I asked her vet. Thanks..
Answer:
 Hi, first do not even consider breeding unless you are very well educated and she is a solid breed representative and has proven it. Her second heat is still too young! Labs are a slow maturing breed especially mentally and also certain health screenings like for hips cannot be certified until the dog is at least 24 months old. Also the dog has to be mentally more mature and that is often 24 - 30 months for many larger breeds especially labs. before you even consider breeding read these on lab health - hereditary issues, expenses, risks, etc and what a good breeder does over one who is less responsible: http://www.labrador-retriever-dogs.org/item/11/catid/4 Lab health - hereditary stuff needing testing for. http://www.labrador-retriever-dogs.org/item/10/catid/4 eye issues in labs - many are genetic and a dog may carry or have and not show it. http://www.labrador-retriever-dogs.org/item/8/catid/4 other health issues - not as common but may show up and be an issue http://www.tributetopets.com/KP2.htm understanding the importance of pedigreesm interpreting them and registration questions http://members.tripod.com/~Marge_S_2/nonframes/Costs.htm breeding expenses http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/7244/costs.html breeding expenses (more) http://www.willowispshelties.com/Breeding/breeding.html general information on what makes a good breeder http://www.learntobreed.com/ great info on what you need to know and do before you breed a dog. http://www.dog-play.com/ethics.html list of breeder ethics and codes of dog clubs for their breeders. Now for the boarding kennel thing - 1) get her to your vet and talk to him/her if the pregnancy is not far along, it may be able to be terminated. 2) make sure she is pregnant before you panick too much. 3) If she IS your vet will be your biggest ally medically and stay in close touch with him/her 4) for other information go to www.AMAZON.com and do a search for whelping puppies and dog breeding in their books. There are several EXCELLENT books on this topic that will be vital...
