I was in denial even when my first baby was on the rag. I've had dogs before but she was the first that was just mine. She was ten months when she went into heat and I was just shocked; I kept thinking but she's still a baby! She was so pitiful then. She would just whine and look miserable. She hated her diapers and would try to take them off all the time. I swear it felt like her heat lasted forever!
I'm not an expert but I have studied in the past (when I wanted to show dachshunds, a dream deferred), but I know the male can go crazy if he is not neutered and try anything and everything to get to the female and vice versa. So, I figure you can never be too careful.
