A female in heat does not only upset the male dogs. When I was breeding German Shepherds, my females would get quite upset with each other when one was heat. Not sure if it was jealousy or what, but one female is season, would upset the whole bunch, not just the males.
I just can not imagine taking the chance of taking any dog, let alone a tiny dog out while she was in heat. They need to be home where they can be safe and comfortable. |
