ReggiesMom · 11-22-2007, 03:23 PM

I have a male yorkie that I did not have fixed and also have one of his daughters. I made an appointment to have her spayed in 2 weeks (she just turned 6 months old) but today she went into heat. Can anyone give me any suggestions about what to look for, things to do to discourage mating, etc? Should I call the vet and try to get her in earlier? My male has noticed her heat but has not seemed overly interested in trying to mate with her.

I'm at a loss as to what to do. Anyone have this situation or do any of you breeders have any suggestions for me?

Thanks a lot and Happy Thanksgiving!
