First Menstruation (Jack Russel)
My Jack Russel, Cookie, is a very healthy and active dog.
She has her first menstruation but it has been on for 14 days now. She is still looking very healthy and is very active. Is such this long period something wrong, and should I be doing something? Thanks |

They're about as opposites as something like that can be. Secondly, she will be in heat for up to 3 1/2 wks--during the entire time, she should be kept strictly away from all intact males. Thirdly, it would be best for her health to be spayed as soon as your vet will allow it (many vets won't spay a dog that is in heat.) -- Emily Carroll Dealing 80s Toys - Rainbow Brite - My Little Pony - More Website: www.geocities.com/diamonds_in_her_eyes Labrador Puppy Pages: www.geocities.com/labpuppypages/ CPG: www.geocities.com/cyberpetgame --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

snip Secondly, she will be in heat for up to 3 1/2 wks--during the entire time, she should be kept strictly away from all intact males. It can sometimes last even longer. Some Basenjis bitches have been successfully bred at day 32. (Rare, but...) Also, do NOT go to any off lead parks. In fact, I'd recommend not going to dog parks in general or letting her off lead outside of your /fenced/ yard. Anywhere you think an intact male might be, off line, don't go. -- -Andrea Stone Saorsa Basenjis http://home1.gte.net/res0s12z/ The Trolls Nest - greenmen, goblins & gargoyle wall art www.trollsnest.com |
