Heat Question McKenzie is in heat or was in heat. She's still very swollen in her private area and her nipples, but she's no longer bleeding. Here's my question -- all of a sudden since she's stopped bleeding my other two girls want to hump her and so does Bentley( I don't let them of course). All of my other dogs are fixed. Mckenzie was scheduled to be fixed, then she got a gum infection from her teeth coming in and went into the beginning stages of heat, so the vet did not want to spay her. I still have to wait about a month before they think it is a good idea to spay her and remove her baby teeth. Anyhow, back to the question. Mckenzie seems VERY irritated at the other dogs licking her down there and she runs away from them. I've been keeping her with me most of the day in my office while I work, but I was just curious if this is a normal thing. Thanks, and I hope I explained this alright. I feel like I'm being confusing! |
normal Think about it..enough is enough..LOL Put panties on her and spritz them with Bitter Apple to discourage the attention... |

I just wasn't sure if it was normal since they didn't try any of this while she was actually bleeding and I was surprised to all of a sudden see that they were interested (even the females!) |
Poor girl, everyone is sniffing & checkin out her business. I would also get some pup pants for her.:) |

timing Now is the correct time for breeding..after the bleeding stops, not before, so she is smelling especially nice to them right now...just keep doing what you are doing..best wishes |
If they dont leave her alone you might have to just remove her from their little sight for awhile, Mabye put them in another room or have her on the sofa with you and them on the floor with the sofa off limits:) |
When they go into heat.correct me if I am wrong. it is 7 day going in 7 days standing 7 days going out... they can bleed any of that time. most do in the 1st and and last part of heat. Good luck ...... I am right about where you are .. Thank god every one else is fixed if not It would Really drive you nuts!!! |
Thank you everyone, I feel a lot better knowing this is natural!! Right now the other furbutts are in the xpen and Mckenzie is on the couch snoozing peacefully w/o being sniffed or licked, sheesh! |

poor girl! i hope she gets left alone!!! :) |
Poor Baby....one of life's downfalls of being a woman... |
They bleed as they are coming into heat. Usually they stop around the time they are actually ready to be bred. So they weren't interested while she was bleeding because she wasn't in standing heat...but now she is so that's why they are showing her so much attention. |
The behavior you are describing is completely normal. Gross, but normal. Just keep in mind that even the most docile, laid back females can transform into Class A Bi***es when they are in heat--so can the females around them. Even if they all love each other and get along at other times, some of them (not just the female in heat) can become territorial and aggressive when in heat. I would advise supervising them as closely as possible when they are together and separating them when you can't keep an eye on them. (Thus the reason why I have 3 dogs in 3 separate rooms of my house right now when I'm not there:rolleyes: ) |
