| I think first heat.... I am sorry but I have a question about the first heat. I hope Gracie is in her first heat as she is bleeding from her potty. Her appetite has also decreased. I am just wondering. A little worried. Is this normal? Thanks for your help.

| is her vulva swollen? When they are in heat, the vulva swells to a large size. If not...blood in the urine can be a urinary tract infections or stones/crystals.

| When my friends cocker spaniel went into her first heat she was panting alot especially at night. She was also overly excited and pacing alot. Her vulva wa swollen for a couple of days before at least that we noticed we thought she had a growth. (lol) But anyways she also had a stinch to her we bathed and bathed her and it wouldn't go away. It lasted for about a month or so. We brought her disposable diapers for when she was in the house. This seemed to work better than the sanitary undergarments. Thi was my firs experience with a female in heat and believe me it wasn't to fun. |

| I am not sure. It does not look extremely large. Also, she is almost 10 months. She will be in 10 days.

| When my girl is in heat, she also is constantly licking "that area". Is your girl licking herself? Also, take a piece of tissue, put it her vulva and see if there is any bloody discharge.
