Dogs' Menses/Periods?
I think that one of my female pups (Pho, "First One"), is having her
first period, bleeding. She was born in January (I believe). What is the usual age, for female pups to start having their periods? Susan, Su_Texas |

A friend of mine has a Rhodesian Ridgeback that did not go into heat until she was almost 2 years old. I suspect that was due to a thyroid problem which was later diagnosed though. For my RR, it was 10 months and then 10 months in between heats thereafter.. Estrus usually occurs the first time between 6 & 12 months of age, or when you least want it to happen:-) René |
