| I don't know what to do Dakota looks liike shes getting ready to go into heat her "private area" is starting to get swollen.. is there any other signs? Also, how long does it normally take for them before they go into heat? I have an appt gor her to get spayed Jan 11th.. and they said they didn't have any appts sooner than then.. so I really don't know what to do except hoping that she won't go into heat! |

| I think that there are different signs. I know that our mini Schnauzer was so "cuddly" and wanted to be held all the time when she went thru her first heat. (we had her spayed about 5 weeks later). I don't think there is much you CAN do. Let nature take its course.... and keep her away from un-neutered little boys! You may want to try a pantie if you are worried about "messes". I am not sure, but I don't think that her heat cycle will interfere with having her spayed on the 11th....... but some of the more experienced breeders may be able to tell you that!

| Being in heat and getting fixed can cause some problems.. the biggest being it will cost more money. sometimes alot more. there may be other risks but not sure. |

| I had planned to get her spayed before she went into heat, but with her concussion a few months ago they didn't want to do it.. so now Im here.. Im keeping my fingers crossed that I can get her in before she really starts.. |

| wait!!! I'd wait at least a month or 2 after heat is over. Bleeding can be a real problem if done during a heat but some vets will do it anyway. Better to be safe |
