My baby girl is PMSing. I haven't seen any blood yet, but she has snapped a couple of times at us and is becoming a little edgy. The last two nights, she has barked for an hour at a time. She has been sleeping fine before those two nights. I was going to have her spayed on Tuesday, but I am still dealing with the fear of losing my first one to being neutered (severe allergic reaction...died that day). So, I'm going to get her spayed, but wanted to talk to the vet a little more. She is 8 months old. What should I do to comfort her? I realize to keep her away from males (the only one she plays with has been neutered and lives in another house). I warm up her blanket before I go to bed in the dryer. She is usually a ball of fire but I have noticed her energy level depleting a little. I will get her spayed...you don't have to convince me of that...my husband and I are a little nervous from our previous experience (took me 12 years to talk him in to getting a dog). Just want to make her more comfortable.
