How long do westies stay in heat

Any of these issues can lead to vocalizations in our female dogs. Some dogs develop slightly swollen nipples and teats before or during their heat cycle. It can also take some time for the swelling to disappear. It can be normal. It can take up to 3 months for the swelling to go down. Please help I real worried.

It is very unusual for the act of breeding to cause damage to the female, but it is possible. It is also possible that she is having an irregular heat cycle. Has she been bred before? It is also possible that she has something abnormal in her vaginal canal that makes breeding difficult. Ovarid is megestrol acetate. In the United States this was marketed under the trade name Ovaban. This is a synthetic analog of the hormone progesterone, which maintains pregnancy. One of its effects is to stop the ovaries from cycling, which is why you give it.

With Ovaban, we used it in one of two ways. If the dog was just beginning its estrus cycle first or second day of swelling and blood spotting , the drug was given once daily for 8 days. In most female dogs, this would stop the estrus cycle. The dog would begin a new cycle in anywhere from two to twelve months later.

While it was four to six months for most dogs, this was really not predictable. The drug was not recommended for repeated use. You are monkeying with the hormone system and it is not an exact science. First heat cycles are often irregular, even when no treatments are being used. We urge our patients to either separate the dogs or have the female spayed ovario-hysterectomy. If breeding has already taken place, the use of megestrol acetate would not be indicated. It is primarily used before or at the very beginning of the heat cycle.

While I am no authority on either dog-breeding or pharmacology, this has been my experience using this drug over a number of years. Your veterinarian who is actually seeing your dog is always your best source of information.

The male will be 2 in May and I am trying to breed them. The female is in heat and ready and the male this is his first time is really having a hard time getting to her. He is all over her expect where he should be. Is there something I can to do help him or will he figure it out? If the cycle is past 9 days and the female is standing well for the male, you could try assisting him to get lined up.

Alternatively, he may indeed figure it out eventually, but perhaps not soon enough to sire puppies this time. If he is unable to mate, even with help, and you feel that his genetic material is still what you want, talk to your veterinarian about artificial insemination. I have a 11 month old dog. She went into heat for the first time last month. Unfortunately, the maid let her out and a nearby dog mated with her. She still continued to bleed for another 1 half week after the mating.

And we made sure she did not mate again. Its been nearly a month since she stopped bleeding. And for the past 5 days she has not been eating well and has been lazing around. Although she has always been a lazy dog! Her nipples are slightly pink but i cant seem to tell if they have grown. We had consulted a Vet, who tested her urine 3 weeks after her cycle was done, and said she was not pregnant. But from what i see, I think she could be.

Please tell me what u think from the story i gave u. Female dogs go through the hormonal changes associated with pregnancy, even when they are not exposed to a male. This can result in changes that outwardly resemble pregnancy, such as swelling of the mammary glands. Thus, some minor outward changes several weeks after breeding do not necessarily mean that she is pregnant.

If your veterinarian has done lab work that says she is not pregnant, then that seems reasonable to me. Often we, as veterinarians, believe that we are doing a splendid job in explaining something, when in fact we are not. If my client will let me know that they still have questions, I am happy to try to spend more time. It can be difficult to explain something in five minutes that one has spent hours in studying. I have a mini poodle who is nearly 4 years old.

She has been on heat 3 times so far, each time 5 months apart. She was due to come on heat again in early February, however she still has not come on. Should I be doing anything? I have a Shih Tzu that had puppies the 28th of December This was her first litter. Her heat cycle was around the 30th of October. If her heat cycles are normal when I should be expecting her to have her next heat cycle.

While there are hormone and drug combinations to start a cycle, I would recommend that you just wait for nature to take its course. Since she has had several normal cycles already, it is likely that her cycles will resume.

Ordinarily a 4-years old dog would have had six or more cycles approximately every six months. Did she begin cycling late in life, or were you just referring to her last three cycles?

If she had been cycling normally up to now, I would be optimistic that heat cycles will resume on their own. Gestation in the dog is usually about 63 days — about two months or nine weeks. Heat cycles are usually about six months apart. Six minus two equals four, so about four months after whelping.

My healthy, active 20 month old basset hound has never had an estrus cycle. I called her breeder to share my concern over this. Am I being lied to? My own Rottweiler about 25 years ago was 16 months old before her first cycle. I did a search on Veterinary Information Network and found a discussion where a reproductive expert had addressed this question.

If all are normal, then progress to ultrasound exam of ovaries and uterus. You can also try to induce estrus. This would best be done by a veterinarian who does a lot of reproductive work.

Then you need to get in touch with a reproductive specialist or a veterinarian with at least a special interest in reproduction medicine. I have a female lhasa apso thx. Today is day 4 since the bleeding started.

Will the first time still be about 9 days? Also is it normal for her to be throwing up her food? Is there anything we can do to make this less stressful for her? We currently have her wearing pupsters. The first heat cycle is often irregular. Seven to nine days is the average amount of time for each of the three phases of the cycle. It could be shorter or longer. Keep her isolated from the males for four weeks.

It is not normal for her to be throwing up her food. If she just vomits a little occasionally, it may just be a little nervous stomach. You could give her half a Pepsid AC once daily to control the excess acid. If she is losing most of what she eats, then you need to take her to see her veterinarian.

That is certainly not normal. Your veterinarian is the best person to check her over and advise you. Hello, My female dog is cuttently in heat. We keep him seperated in a different room. But he continously howls and barks. I know that this is normal but my question is. He just started his behavior in the past few days.

Will he continue t act this way until she is done? Or does it only last for the middle part of her cycle? I am curious to hear how long your male was interested. Mine is non stop howling, totally uncontrollable and did not start this until her middle cycle. He is 13 so perhaps a little slow.

How much longer will I have to endure this for? Hello, Stephanie, The males tend to be interested long after the females have lost their interest. They usually remain interested until the cycle is fully over, so it could be another 2 weeks.

I just wanted to thank you for your little article here. I found it to be concise yet thorough and easy to understand. I have an unspayed female who I plan to show, hence she is not spayed yet. I plan on speaking with our regular vet about this tomorrow. This is a synthetic analog of the hormone progesterone.

Progesterone maintains pregnancy, and part of that is to stop the ovaries from cycling. Mibolerone is a synthetic androgen male type hormone which can be given on a continuous basis to keep the dog out of heat. It should not be given to immature dogs as it can mess up their bone maturation process the growth plates.

It is not readily available commercially and must be obtained from a compounding pharmacy. I would like to breed her and am wondering if i should take her to the vet for a check-up?

If she really has not been cycling for the past year, then the situation can be pretty complicated. You start by measuring hormone levels, and probably getting a good luck at her uterus and ovaries with an abdominal ultrasound exam. If no abnormalities are found, it may be possible to artificially stimulate an estrus cycle and ovulation. Your veterinarian can help you with this, or refer you to a specialist, if necessary. If they dont tie does that mean that she cant pregnant? As long as the sperm are delivered, conception can take place.

It is a little hard to predict how these things will turn out, but I have seen puppies that were a Collie mixed with Dachshund, and the Dachshund was the father. Nobody witnessed the mating, but the dogs were neighbors, and the puppies sure looked the part. It sounds like your bitch is demonstrating social dominance by the mounting behavior. This is not really sexual behavior.

It is often seen with spayed females, even. He may never summon the courage to mount her, even if she is in strong, standing heat. Hi i have to ask about my small jack russell bitch. She was in heat last february and now is in heat again. Can a dog force herself into heat beacuse of another bitch in heat. A few weeks ago a neighbour brought their dog aorund and she was in heat and she could get the scents of our other dog and the other bitch at work.

Any solution to this? That being said, it is common for females housed together over a period of time to begin to cycle at the same time. In herd and pack animals, this makes sense. Everybody gets bred, delivers babies, and raises babies around the same time, so the babies are the same age. Oddly enough, it is also reported that human female room-mates often begin to cycle at the same time after living together for a few months. Hi, my 2 and a half year old beagle went in to heat in July.

When she remembered she ran out there and when she saw them she said they were standing nose to nose. She left them out there for almost an hour. After that she still continued to want to breed with their male dog. Can you tell if they bred or not? Your veterinarian can perform a vaginal cytology exam to determine if your dog is in the fertile stage of her heat cycle. If not, then breeding was unlikely. If she is in the fertile and receptive stage, then you would to do the exam almost immediately after the act of breeding if you wished to detect the presence of sperm.

Next step: ultrasound exam at 28 days post-breeding or possible breeding to look for pregnancy. If you do not wish puppies ever , then this is a good time to schedule the spay operation to get rid of the puppy works and quit worrying about this.

My 8 month old husky is in her first heat…. She is still bleeding… She went outside and found her stuck to a dog… Is it possible she is not pregnant since she is still bleeding???? Yes, it is possible that she has been bred so early in the cycle that she has not ovulated yet. If you are sure that you do not want to breed her later, you could arrange to have her spayed a complete hysterectomy even though she has been bred.

If you do wish to breed her later, and she does get pregnant, then you could ask your veterinarian about prostaglandin injections to abort the pregnancy. These are not dangerous, but they are not fun, either. The dog is treated twice daily for several days. After each injection, they usually urinate, have a bowel movement, and vomit. For right now, you should work harder at keeping her away from the males.

My 2 year old male yorkie has not breeded yet, we have a friend that has a female yorkie that now is ready to mate. She backs up to him and flags her tail to the side. What do we do? It is possible that the female is not fully into the receptive stage of estrum heat , but it sounds as though she probably is. The dog may figure things out in another day or so, but then again he may not. If you wait too many day, the female will pass her fertile time, though. We usually try to start the breeding on day 9 counting day 1 as the first day you notice the bloody vaginal discharge.

A few days later she will ovulate, and soon it will be too late to breed her on this heat cycle. If the owner of the female is set on getting her bred this cycle, you may not have time to wait for your inexperienced male to figure things out. They may be better off to seek out a male with a proven track record. Hello, I was wondering if it is ok to breed a female dog if it is her first heat cycle yet she is close to one year old. Or if I should wait for her second heat cycle.

Ideally, you would wait until her second cycle. If she is less than one year old, she is not fully mature herself. She will be more likely to have a successful pregnancy and nursing if she is fully mature.

Lots of dogs get bred on their first cycle, but if you are planning this, you might as well plan for it to work out as well as possible. My puppy is a 6 month old poodle yorkie mix. My vet does not spay dog until they are at least 7 months old. She went into heat at about 6 months. She weighs about 8 pounds. I noticed the discharge September She got out the cat door on September Is it possible for her to get pregnant before she bleeds.

Her behavior has not changed. She is an energetic puppy. All female dogs go through the hormonal changes associated with pregnancy even when they do not get exposed to a male.

This is usually not detectable without a blood test. However, it is common for female dogs to have some breast enlargement after their heat cycle. Chances are that this is all you are seeing. Even if she had been bred, you can schedule her surgery for the week after she has finished her cycle.

Even if she were pregnant, the pregnancy would be very small and would not substantially affect the difficulty of doing the surgery. If you intend to breed her later on, then you would wish to have an ultrasound exam done at day 28 post-breeding. If pregnancy were detected, it could be terminated with prostaglandin injections. Hi, my question is my female has been in heat going out of her second week.

Can she still get pregnant without there being a tie with them? My female is 3 yrs old and my male is 2 years old. I am confused our last saint did not stay swelled in the private area and if she did it was not noticeable like when she is in heat at all.

She has always laid around but seems to me she is laying around even more now then before. The swelling of the vulva is of highly questionable significance, as it is highly variable between dogs. Other than the fact that it gets swollen while they are in heat, I would attach no significance to it. The mounting behavior of the female at this point is probably just dominant behavior, rather than sexual behavior. Again, this tells us nothing about her pregnancy or lack thereof. If she seems to be feeling bad, get her a checkup sooner.

Sometimes infections develop post-breeding. Your veterinarian can do a vaginal cytology exam and blood count to assess this. We are adopting a four year old 70 pound female American bull dog who has produced one liter but never cycled again and it is 8 months now.

Do you think it is possible that she will cycle again and mate with our 18 month pound American bull dog? Some dogs do not cycle every six months. The male dog will be much more likely to detect estrum than you are. He has the nose and the motivation. This may require some consultation with a veterinarian who specializes in reproduction.

I know that I would have to get some advice myself. You will want your veterinarian to check the dog for any obvious physical problems and rule those out first.

If the female has successfully produced on litter then she certainly has the potential to do so again. It is possible that the Chihuahua is old enough to just stop cycling, though some female dogs cycle until they die.

If both dogs seem to feel good and seem to be doing well otherwise, then there may be no problem. Some dogs like your St. Bernard maybe do not always have a really obvious cycle. If you are concerned, it would be best to have your veterinarian check out the dogs. They may also ultra-sound the uterus to look for enlargement, or fluid accumulation.

Hormone levels can be checked, but this tends to be a little more expensive. It would be more important to monitor hormone levels if you actually want to breed the dog. My 10 month old mini schnauzer male is not interested in a 2 yr old female on day 10 of her heat cycle. Her owner brought her to me on her 6th day and he was very interested, just not accurate.

Is he just too young? Both are 1st timers too. Could that be the issue. Thanks, Annie. It is possible that the female is having an irregular cycle. Your veterinarian can perform a vaginal cytology examination to find out if she has already ovulated and is past her period of being receptive to the male. If she is still in her fertile phase, it may be problem with inexperience.

If the female is somehow perceived as dominant, the male may become reluctant to try to mate. Hello, I have 2 West Highland Terriers. My female is 2 yrs and y male is 9 mths. She has been accepting him for 3 days now and there are locking constantly! Should I seperate them after once or twice in a day? There are very happy loving dogs and the last few weeks are inseperable. They are certainly being more sexually active than necessary for conception. Once every other day would probably work.

Ideally you would breed daily while she accepts the male, which would be 7 to 9 days, on average. With them locking up that often, the sperm count per breeding is probably getting a little low, but that is unlikely to be a problem since we are only talking about service on one female.

If you were trying to cover more than one female, you would not let the guy exhaust himself with the first one. I predict that you will have puppies and that all this activity will not cause problems. You should get a pre-natal checkup with your veterinarian about 4 weeks after breeding. Hi, I have a maiden cocker bitch who is day 15 of her cycle, she is still bleeding a watery red blood.

She is flagging a proven stud dog and her tail goes to one side and she lifts her swollen vulva up to him but he just licks her and walks away, is she not ready yet or is the male rejecting her for some reason?? It is not unusual for the first cycle to be irregular. It is possible she is not yet ready, and the male is probably a better judge than we are.

I would suggest that you let your veterinarian check a vaginal cytology. This is a simple and fast procedure that helps evaluate the stage of her heat cycle. Your veterinarian is the best person to advise you about this.

Wait, so essentially dogs only go through it very, very rarely, but for a longer stretch of time? Are there any other similarities other than bloody discharge? By estrous cycle, we mean the ovaries preparing follicles that nourish the egg cells to the point that they can be released and fertilized, and the uterus becoming prepared to accept the fertilized eggs.

If fertilization does not take place, the cycle starts again, generally at some regular interval. Humans cycle regularly at roughly once per month. Dogs cycle most of them regularly, but only about once every six months.

The bloody discharge in dogs has to do with the vaginal lining undergoing changes to toughen up for the impending trauma of intercourse. This is the earliest part of the cycle. Dogs do not menstruate. Female dogs tend to be sexually receptive ONLY during the middle of their estrous cycle.

Female humans tend to be receptive for reasons that are often quite independent of their hormonal status. She has never had a heat cycle. Should she see a vet?

She is not spayed. It is also possible that her ovaries are not active. If you did wish to breed her, you would have to check a series of hormone levels to see what her ovaries are doing. This could be done, but is probably a waste of time. My concern is that in the long run, she may have same problems as any other elderly, unspayed female: more risk of breast tumors, and possible uterine infections. If you are worried about her, I suspect that the simplest and best solution would be to have her spayed the removal of the uterus and ovaries.

We have two female border collies. Well last wed. June 16th we noticed bleeding. The bleeding stopped around 19th. She was flagging a little and we did get a tie. She yelped at first but we got her calmed down this is her first breeding Today 23rd we took her to him again for another tie.

I had to bring her in there. We got her to focus on a ball and they tied again. Is she just being cautions because this is her first time or did we miss the right time or is it too early? Usually she goes when the other one goes. Is there a way to push her into heat. I would have your veterinarian check a vaginal cytology to look at what stage of the cycle the dog is in. We want the dog to view the crate as its den, its safe place. Instead, these guys are viewing it as their jail, so they want out.

She just recovered from a vaginal infection, the vet said I should get her spayed but I want to breed her in the near future. I recommend that you have a more in-depth discussion with your veterinarian.

I would want to have a better understanding of why the spaying operation has been recommended. Since she is a mixed breed dog, and the world is full of unwanted pups, and lots of them have to be put down because nobody wants them, why is it important to breed this dog? After discussing these issues with your veterinarian, you should be better able to make your decision. We vaccinate people and animals for diseases that are serious or fatal, and for which we do not have a good treatment.

A vaccine is a preparation containing the germs that cause a disease. The germs have been grown in a laboratory and either killed or weakened so that they cannot harm the dog. This is like peace-time war games. There is no point in trying to vaccinate a sick or debilitated puppy. Young puppies do not respond like adults when given the same vaccines. Instead of making a high level of protection for a year, they make a low level, and they may quit in a few weeks.

Or they may not respond at all. In dogs we worry most about distemper, parvovirus, hepatitis, and rabies. It does not contain rabies. Different vaccines may contain slightly different combinations. If the vaccine has not been properly stored kept cold, not frozen , it will not be effective at all. If it has ever warmed up to room temperature for any length of time to speak of, it will not be effective.

With over-the-counter vaccines, you have no assurance of effectiveness. When you administer this yourself, there is also the possibility that you do so incorrectly. In the rare event of a serious vaccine reaction and they do happen sometimes , you will not be equipped to treat it. So good luck with that. Without a good examination by your veterinarian, you may overlook significant medical problems and parasite problems that could be easily treated in the early stages, but be very serious later on.

I have read your posts on this page…that being said, first let me commend you for your patience in answering the same questions repeatedly.. Now to my question, I have a female Mini Aussie, she is 28 months old, her last heat cycle began on the 28th of Oct. I am wanting to breed her and have been waiting for her to go into heat. Since she has had 3 previous cycles in which she did this behavior should I be concerned?

I have looked for more information and have been unable to find any. Thanks, Christina. Since most dogs cycle every 6 months, your dog is indeed late for her next cycle. She might be a candidate for the artificial induction of estrus.

I have a Pom-Chi was recently rescued. She came to me while in heat and i saw no sign of blood after bringing her home. My sister took the male that was from the same house and he is not fixed either. That was 10 days ago, since then he has lost insterest and she has started bleeding again and her rear nipples have started to become swollen and pink.

Could she be pregnant? Should i be worried that she stared bleeding again? It is possible that she was bleeding before you acquired her and was in the fertile period, and that this was why the male was mounting her.

It is also possible that this was a dominance-related behavior, and she is just NOW starting in heat. You should take her to your veterinarian. By the numbers, you should be okay by the 25th of September. Unfortunately, some dogs cannot count. Your veterinarian can perform a vaginal cytology examination.

There are distinct changes that occur after ovulation, and then you will know she is past her fertile period. Generally speaking, most female dogs have their first cycle before they are fully mature, anywhere from 7 months to 10 months old.

They can get pregnant at that cycle, but it is not advisable. Most folks recommend waiting until the second heat cycle, after the dog is fully mature greater than one year old. Five years old should not really be a problem, though if she has never been bred before, that may entail some logistical problems.

Hi, We have a 3yr old female lab and a 5yr old male lab. We are trying to mate them this heat cycle. She is still very unreceptive to the male. Did we miss the time to mate? Or should we continue to show them each other everyday until she is receptive? He is still very interested in her. This is both of the dogs first time mating. Thank you! With this being the first date for both of them, it make take a few tries for them to figure it out.

I caught her blood spotting on the floor. Please reply.. Hello, given her age we strongly suggest you speak to your vet for further advice, they will be able to exam her if needed — even for your peace of mind. Are there any chances that she can go on heat again?

Please advise coz I really want to keep her blood line. Our advice would be to get a full health check with your vet, and talk to them about whether it would be safe — or kind — for her to carry a litter to term. Hi Shane. It varies with each bitch. In general, the season will be around 3 weeks long, and bleeding is for around the first 9 days or so.

So I am concerned whether they still get their period after being spayed. Not normally no. This can mean that there is some ovary tissue still in her.

I have a gsd and she is 2year old now she have not seen her hit period. Seasons can vary in when they start, but your vet will be able to examine her and give you advice specific to her. Please for your dog health get your dog spayed. My little yorkie age 12 has cancer because of me. I have a 12 year old yorkie, she hasnt shown any bleeding for a couple of years when she has come into season.

Also I thinking. Hello Crissy, in your dogs case, I would get in touch with your vet and have her checked over. Thanks So much,, We have a wonderful family daughter dog female Pittbull.

She has her regular cycles around every six months or so, but not to the date. So I had talked to my vet about getting her fixed. He did tell me that as she gets older, it may be best and will help with the hormones and types of Cancers that I may be able to avoid. She is very clingy all the time, loves her mom wife and will not leave her side when in heat..

Or more ready, I always wondered about that.. So Thanks for the great advice and information sharing.. Because she is such a gorgeous champagne fawn rednose, and just awesome temperament.

I am sure she would make a great mom for pups, and they would be awesome pups, its still a decision to have the right male, and have everything ready for her safety, and the pups safety..

Anyway,, Thanks for all the great information. Hi Barry, this is an interesting one, thanks for asking. So the answer is that technically, yes, your bitch could become pregnant at As for whether you should spay your ageing greyhound, that one would be worth talking through with your vet to consider it on an individual basis in terms of health and benefits.

We hope this helps. My first female pit got pyometra and it was the most devastating thing I have ever had to go through with a four legged family member. Please talk to your vet about all the options. I have a 15 year old staff and she is bleeding heavily when she comes on season is this normal for her age. Thank you so very much for this article!

My Raven is a lb s. Black Lab, 6 years old and realized that she last had a season exactly on April 1st. Here we are, Oct. So I went to see if bitches also go through menopause like female women do and I come across this article. When I first got her as a puppy I did intend on mating her. Thank you so much again! This is really interesting. I always thought that female dogs stopped being able to breed after a certain age much like a human woman would stop being able to have children after a certain age.

This has really opened my eyes. So glad I decided to get my dog spayed anyway.

I also have a red nose female pitbull.. Dogs come into heat at very different ages, and different individuals go different lengths of time between seasons — anywhere from 5 months to 2 years can be normal! Dogs do not get periods in quite the same way that humans do. A bloody discharge may indeed be due to her coming into season, but it can also be due to vaginitis or a urinary tract infection, and at that age, these should be ruled out by your vet first.

Talk to your vet for advice on ruling out the common things first, though! My bitch has been bleeding for 19 days, the blood is now lighter and pinker.
