She can't get pregnant at this stage of her heat. Keep them apart. Diapers and belly bands are not enough protection. Crating one is not enough protection b/c they can just do it through the bars. Spaying is best not done during heat. It is a bit riskier. |
You can get doggy diapers at Petco so she will not make a mess from the discharge. Please do be careful not to put her with your male as it only takes a minute for them to hook up and the shelters are full of mixed breed dogs that need homes . You would not want to add to it. Also the doggy diaper Will Not keep your male dog from mating with her so don't try to use it as a form of birth control. |
Just a thought, but why don't you take your male in and have him neutered today or tomorrow before you do have a problem on your hands? |
It does NOT matter if the male is much larger then your female it is actually more dangerous~! Please do not ever leave them together. Not for one minute since that is all it will take for them to tie. Beside the fact that she is small she is also way too young to have a litter of puppies. I cannot stress to you how important of an issue this is~if it were me I would see if I could have your male neutered ASAP and also take her to a friends for a little vacation until the risk of pregnancy has passed for her. There have been so many accidental breeding and the results are just frightening! Like it has already been said, doggie diapers and belly bands are NOT dog condons and should never be used for this purpose. Crates are not safe either~they will try to do what nature is telling them to do when the timing is right. Please make sure you take this VERY SERIOUSLY and be proactive so that you do not end up needing to be reactive when they do tie. |

Good point. It sounds like the absolute BEST option for her right now would be to completely separate the dogs. Not by putting them in different rooms, not diapers, not crates. To the OP: Do you have a friend or relative who can take your male until her heat cycle is over? |

Getting him completely out of the house is the only way to absolutely prevent pregnancy. |
