Females are in heat for 3 weeks and often a female will accept a male all the way to the 21st day or longer. I have had some females accept a male very early in her heat cycle and others that would want nothing to do with the male until the 14th day. They are all different. Some breeders do progesterone testing so they don't have to guess. |
I have one little hussy that will be flirting and flagging from day one til day 28.
I am never sure when which day mine go into heat. I start counting from when all the other dogs start paying a lot of attention to one, sniffing, humping etc.
I rarely see any blood.
