Well, I'm wondering what the procedure is that you are going through to save the images. For instance, if I want to save someone's animated avatar here, I do a right-click > Save Image As... and since it is animated, it saves as whatever.gif (it should not say whatever.jpg or whatever.jpeg). Then, I open it in Preview and open the drawer and it tells me how many images make up that gif. Or, I can open it in photoshop and it will have a bunch of layers to make that gif. What program are you opening it up in? And, how are you going about putting it into sony vegas? I'm pretty sure you can't just do a select > copy > paste cuz you would just get that one layer, not the animation.
