    Has she been spayed? If not, then she could be having a false pregnancy. Second, are you sure she's lactating? Are all teats producing a liquid? If not she may have an infection in the one(s) producing. She should be checked out by a vet.
    she needs to be taken to the vet asap the other reason could be she is having a fantom pregnacy good luck

    You meant "lhasa Apso"?

    maybe she meant Shitzu.

    We have one at home too.

    sounds like a pseudopregnancy, has she gained weight, and has her behavior changed at all?  Some become maternal and carry toys around that they never did, cuddle with them like their pups, etc.  Sometimes a cyst on the ovary can mimic the pregnancy, the vet could give her meds to correct this problem and take care of said cyst, if that is the cause. 

    u mean lapsa apso
