| Coming into heat.... Hi everyone, just wondering when everyone's female yorkie's came into heat? My fur baby, Penelope, is about 7 months now and I don't see any signs of it, is this normal? She is my first yorkie so I'd really like to know anything you can tell me about this. |

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | All dogs are different... there is no rule or set time when or at what age they will come into heat. If you have an intact male in the house be very careful and do every thing possible to keep them separated. A female should never by bread on their first heat.

| Callie didn't I had her spayed at 9 months before her first heat. Do you plan on spaying her?

| Yes, I plan on spaying her. I'm not out to breed my little girl. For some reason it's hard to imagine my baby having babies, lol. |

| Then you should try and do it before her first heat.

| I spayed Khloe at 8 months and she had not had her first heat yet. I waited so long because she was tiny. When do you plan on spaying Penelope?

| Belle went into heat the week after she turned 6 months old. I had planned to get her spay done between 9 and 12 months as I wanted to let her mature and grow a bit, but she surprised me!

| I always spay/neuter before they are 7 months old. So far we haven't had any females go in heat prior to being spayed.
