When is my puppy going to start her period??? Tootsie is 9 1/2 months now and I am not sure when she is going to start her period. I heard they are suppose to start around 6-8 months but i am not sure. I hope everything is okay with her but i wanted to know if anyone knows around what time they are suppose to start. THANKS:) |
It can be longer than that. Some up to or over a year. I heard they can have silent heat too. Most of the tiny ones have theirs late. Just give it some time... If you are planning on spaying her, you should do it before she has her first heat. I hope I helped with your question. |
Zoe just started her first heat. She is 9 1/2 months. |
you might not be able to tell whether or not she did if you don't look closely... they might not leak blood at all.. Belle's 1st cycle was at bout 9 months... but she only really leaked like 2 days... check her vagina to see if it's swollen, same with her nipples... |
Kalina was 7 months, but I know some that are 14 months and even older. |
Bella went into estrus at 10 months |
Tinkerbell started her at 10 1/2 months:rolleyes: Why are wanting her to go into heat?? Tinkerbell was not happy:( |
its best to go ahead and get her spayed before she has her first heat. heats can be from 6-24 months. if their first heat doesn't happen by 14 months (by what i have read), get her spayed asap. there are probably some issues causing her not to go into heat at the proper time. |
coco was around 8 months when she went into her first heat and i was getting worried she wouldnt lol but dont worry your baby will come int heat soon |
Why would you want her to? It's horribly messy and not very pleasant at all. |
Please get her spayed before she has her first heat. By doing so you will practically eliminate her chance of getting mammary cancer later on. The risk of malignant mammary tumors in dogs spayed prior to their first heat is 0.05%. It is 8% for dog spayed after one heat, and 26% in dogs spayed after their second heat. http://www.peteducation.com/article....&articleid=460 |
I don't want her to go into heat, but I was just wondering because I am planning on getting her fixed in feb. because the county i live in does a "prevent a litter" month and i can get her fixed for $40. she will be 1 in feb. so hopefully she won't start before then.... |
most likely she will start before then. MiMi started her heat at around 10.5 months. her heat i could not miss! |
That is sure nice that your county does that. Have you asked them questions about what anesthesia they use, if they give pain med, if the surgery tables are heated, if they do bloodwork...? |
As soon as they put up all the info. I will be sure to ask them questions Thanks... |
