My Zoey has a male Maltese friend named Jack who she used to LOVE to play with. Everyone said Zoey was relentless when playing with him and would go full-speed for hours!! When Jack would get tired, she would go and harass him to continue playing with her. She went through her first heat cycle in Late April/May. I do understand about spaying her and lost my first male Yorkie unexpectedly while he was being neutered

. So, I am going to spay her but I wasn't going to rush in to this as I felt I had with my male.
She has completely changed with regard to playing. She now cowards down while Jack tries to play with her until she has had enough and goes a little "psycho" on him to let him know she is done. Am I being impatient or will she eventually get back to her old self? Her nipples are no longer swollen. Anyone experienced this?
