| She was in heat when we had her Spayed Our Little Zoey was in heat 3 times and we didn't even know about the most recent untill we had her Spayed. We had Zoey Scheduled to be Spayed back in Sept as she became 6 months old unfortunately she went into heat and it seemed early but it was confirmed by the Vet. So we were told to wait several weeks untill after heat had passed. We returned from vacation and were having her scheduled to be spayed and she was in Heat AGAIN ! It was Crazy so the vet said Just schedule her for the 1st of the month 30 days later...Now we had he Spayed and as we get the Bill the Vet added $150.00 extra saying she was in heat and it was a more difficult spay since all of her organs were swollen.. All I can Say is She won't be in Heat again. But the recovery is slow and heartbreaking. She wants to stay right by our sides but has a hard time keeping up and is straining herself. So we have to slow down and stay in and let her heal... Has anyone ever heard of a dog being in Heat that often??? Last edited by legendprice; 12-04-2010 at 04:37 PM. |

| Poor baby! Can't help you out with this issue though - my Daisy was spayed at about 4 months old (a little young for a spay in fact) so she never had a heat. I hope she is ok. I do have a question - why didn't the vet know that she was in heat? I think that they should be able to tell but I could be wrong.

| I have heard of it horses and could happen in any animal. But the reason would be there is a hormone issue that was going on for her to be repeatedly in heat and at such a young age. What was causing it, hard to say. But now that she is spayed, hopefully she will not show signs of heat again. A spay usually just involves removing the uterus not the ovaries. The ovaries and the pituitary gland produces certain female hormones. There may possibly be issues with the ovaries and/or pituitary gland. I would wait and see but if you see signs of false heats I would try to find a good reproduction Vet taht might be more familiar this kind of situation. |
