monthly friend How old are the dogs before they get there friend? how can you tell when is coming? my little one is almost 6months. Thank you |
You mean their first heat? Usually about 8 -10 months, but Uni didn't get hers till 13 months! You should get her spayed now, perfect timing. |

:) poppy was 6 months , we had her spayed at 11 months :) |
Anytime 6 months or after and it isn't monthly. :) It's every 4-7 months and sometimes only every 12 monhs. |
Don't mean to change the subject... I'm confused. The breeder told me not to get Sydney spayed until she's at least a year old. She said the anesthesia is too hard on a Yorkie before then. Sydney turned 16 weeks yesterday. |

Me too. I'm not looking forward to when she does. Did you use diapers? Did your Yorkie chew on them? A friend of mine used diapers, but I'm really not sure what to do. |
Most of us recommend getting it done before the first heat because their chances of getting mammary cancer if done then is less than 1%. If you wait til after the first heat their chances go up to 8%, then anytime thereafter it is 26%. Most Yorkies are close to full grown by 6 months and do fine with anesthesia. |

You can use a doggie diaper/panties. They are specially made for dogs and you can cut a panyliner in half and stick in the panties to help keep them cleaner. Fancy will be 1 on the 29th of this month and just had her first heat about 2 weeks ago and she is getting spayed before her next one. She never chewed on her panties but she also wears clothes so she is used to having something on her body. |
