Someone help me calm my nerves!!! Okay, so i just want to make sure that what i believe is true....My 12 mts old not sprayed female baby was napping on my lap and when i removed her, there were wet spot all over my pants!!! I thought she peed on me or was leaking urine!!! but then i smelled it and it smelled like blood, but it was tinted orangish/brownish!!! Then i noticed that her crotch smells like a dying rat!!!! (aka period blood) Is she having her "period". I never had a female puppy before and im always paranoid thinking she's gonna die, lol. (a few days ago she had a tick on her and i rushed her to the emergency vet to remove it!!! I think the vet thought i was nuts!!!) Her privates are enlarged and she is humping her dog bed (though for the past 6 mts she has been humping it off and on) but i have never noticed discharge before until tonight!!! So let me know what it is...i was always told that dogs "bleed a lot" so when i think blood, i think bright red blood everywhere, not lil spots of browish/ orange discharge... thanks, coco's worried mommy |
Doggie in heat I would wager to bet that your puppy is in heat. Uh huh! :) |
Yes, your baby is in heat. Be sure to keep her away from any males for the next 3 weeks. You can also get little diaper panties at Petsmart that you add little pads inside to keep it off the furniture, etc (like your pants) |
oh goodie she is in heat!!!! I noticed today our apartment smelled like a dying rat, so maybe her period blood is all over the place?!?!? Gross...my poor baby is no longer a baby!!!! I'll have to make a vet appt to get her fixed.. :( Though I'm soo scared to get her fix!!! like what if they mess up and murder her!!! I couldn't live without my babyyy!!!! Have any of you felt this way?? Scared to bring them to a vet and have surgery... |

I wouldn't be scared to get her fixed though, she'll be fine. |

I think you have to wait a couple of months after a dog's heat before you can have it spayed. |

As I understand though, the longer you wait on getting her spayed and the more heats she goes into, puts her at a higher risk for cancer. |

No wonder our world is full hate with judgemental people like you!! And lets say I was very young, like 10 or 12, how do you think that comment would made them feel??? Not very good. I actually have a sense of humor, unlike you..so i'm sorry if i offended you in anyway. I was just trying to make humor out of her situation. And also considering it is 1 in the morning and just got done studying for two major exams I may sound crazy at the moment. The fact and the main point is, I was seeking help and instead of helping me, you critisized me by asking me how old I was. Anyway, enough rant and I thank everyone who was helpful to me!! Have a wonderful night!!! |

Like I said before, I didn't mean to offend you and I was just asking a simple question, you wanted to know why I wanted to know your age and I told you. Just like you can't help how I take you, I can't help how you take me. I honestly just didn't think that the post was all that funny but to each their own. Oh and I was trying to help too, your post was just a little confusing, that's all. Have a great night! :) |

And yes, you did insult my intelligence!!! My overall intelligences, wheather I was being humorous or not. By asking my age, thinking I was very VERY young, and thinking i was a "certain thing with colorful hair" And what if I did have colorful hair??? Would that make me a bad person?? An unintelligent person?? And yes, you did offer advice, only after your critizising comments...And i really shouldn't make such a big deal out of this, but you must realize wheather you are being mean or not, it hurts people's feelings!!! |
Don't be afraid to get your Yorkie spayed. Did you know that there are many benefits to getting her spayed like reducing her risk of cancer? Spay and Neuter Health Benefits ~ Pawprints and Purrs, Inc. If you had had her spayed before she ever had her first heat, her risk of cancer would have been zero. If you get her spayed before she has a second heat, her risk of cancer is still only 8%. If you wait until after she has her second heat, the risk rises to 25%. Make sure and get pre op bloodwork done before her spay to alert your vet to any conditions that might make anesthesia risky. If her bloodwork is good, she'll be fine. Complications from pregnancy is much riskier than spaying. Be very, very careful with her for the next few weeks. Males can smell a female in heat for miles away. They will be determined to get to her if there are any close. |

Now I'm not being silly, but you described the odor of a dead rat........it made me laugh.....cause I've never heard that description before....I'm a breeder and the odor is musky to me.....you must have a real sensitive nose. |

Don't take that the wrong way as I'm not TRYING to be mean. ...I still can't figure out as to what "certain thing with colorful hair" refers. |

Roxie came into heat before her scheduled spay and I had to wait a couple of months to get her spayed. I too am always afraid to spay mine and they usually end up going into heat before Iget up the nerve but they have always been just fine. We all know how scary it is to have it done but the benefits out weigh the very slight risk |
I know this is off the subject, but Sophie had loose stools with Nutro too. We took her off immediately. However, the Duck and Potato made her scratch something awful. We are back to Royal Canin. Good luck with your baby, and she will be fine with the spay. |

Boy, this made for some interesting lunch time reading! I remember when my little Trixie went into her first heat, I about died too! I don't know if the stinking EX has had her fixed yet or not, but I doubt it. I miss her terribly and I wish I knew where she was. I did put on her little diaper too as much as she hated it but it was necessary. I'm glad I have a boy now! Relief! |
I would try using Natural Balance organic my Rocky was the same way itchy and once i started using the organic he was not scratching anymore. It's like 2-3 bucks more but it's worth it |
