 heat and breeding
I have a yorkie female who is almost 2 years old and in heat. I first saw blood Saturday. It is dark in color and was on her little panties. I had been out of town with her for a couple of days and came home yesterday. My male yorkie was going crazy when I got home. I figured it was just the "smell of heat". He never even acted interested in her last week so I figured she was just beginning her cycle. I watched them this morning and she was just playing with the other dogs so I left them in the living room to go into the laundry room. I was only out of the room for maybe three minutes and came back into the room and they were tied. My question is ... did he prematurely mate with her? I thought her discharge would be light before she was "ready". I am somewhat confused because he wasn't even interested in her until yesterday. I did want to breed her this cycle but not with this male. I wanted to use my mother's dog (which I bought her) who is smaller. |
