The heat cycle lasts 2 to 3 weeks, but I'm sure your vet will have more information. If she was in heat when you got her, is there any possibility that she has already mated? If so, I would definitely get her spayed as soon as the vet says it is safe, since a pregnancy by a larger breed male dog could be fatal. In the meantime, be sure to be with her and watch her like a hawk every time you take her outside to potty to keep her safe from un-neutered males, who will do anything they can to get at her. |
