Bitches go into heat every 6 months, mine does every 7 or 8, some go only once a year so depends on the specific female. I do NOT breed every cycle or heat, I try to skip one to let her body recuperate from the stress of whelping and lactating. I know breeders that breed their girls every heat, with the blessings of their vets. I guess is a personal choice on when to breed and when to skip...
