| First heat Yes, it sounds like your Lulu is going through her first heat. She is at the right age for it. The swelling of the vulva and nipples are normal. Do you plan on spaying her?

LOL! That's what I say to myself every month! Well, just a suggestion, if you plan on breeding her, do your best to make sure that you wait until at least her second heat. I only say this because my girl got pregnant by accident on her first heat and I lost her recently due to complications. Don't mean to put a damper on things, I just wanted to throw that out there.

| i'm so sorry to hear what happened! may maddie rest in peace. if i do breed i won't do it till 2 years of age, i just can't stand my lulu being sprayed! i want my lulu to have opportunity to be a mother some day & also avoid her organs being removed; despite what health experts say the benefits of neutering/spraying.

| Nelly will soon be 6 months and I have her booked for her surgery but I am very scared for her, I guess it is a parent thing. Well anyway, I was wondering, if I did not get her done yet how long are they in heat for, is it very messy, and how many babies do yorkie's usually have. This is my first one so I do not know any info on the pregnancy of a yorkie. My other dogs have been spayed/neutered so I have no experience in this field. I do not think I will let her have pups or anything because I do not know if you need a license for that or you need to notify anyone that you are planning on letting your dog have pups, I am totally stupid when it comes to this area so bare with me. My Nelly is a yorkipoo but I do have friends that have pure yorkie's that are males and I think they would love for them to have puppies together, not for showing or anything just a beautiful family pet. |

| Well, your little Lulu is now a young lady. Make sure you are with her everytime she goes out. Males from miles around will come calling. Also, my little sweet darlings,seem to turn into slutpuppies when they are in heat. Hope it's ok to use that term. |
