Gracie was just under 4lbs when she had her first heat. I hardly noticed the bleeding. She kept herself very clean. I was concerned that if I put diapers on her that it would mess up her potty training so I had pads all over the furniture she would normally get on and on the bed. No, she didn't pee on them. She was very accustomed to going potty on the pee pads in the frames. Gracie actually bled for about 2 weeks. The scent that a male dog can smell is still in their urine and on their bodies even when the bleeding stops so keep her protected whenever she is outside. Don't be surprised if you find some male dogs wandering in your yard if she potties out there. |
