| Swollen Genital Hi! I have a 2 years old female yorkshire, Candi. I noticed that her genital is swollen and she licks herself a lot, also she's in heaten. Anyone's baby experienced this before, please share your information with me so I have a clear idea before taking her to the Vet. and she hates going to the Vet. Thanks! |

| If she's not spayed and in heat, her vulva will be swollen, perfectly normal. Licking is normal also. Annoying but normal. Now if she's swollen and licking all the time, not just when she's in heat, then there may be a problem and you should definitely see your vet. |

| Yes, when in heat it is perfectly normal for them to have a swollen vulva and bleeding and they will clean themselves a lot. |
