Well let's see.... The birds and the bees or the flowers and the trees or.... Oh I'm sorry I trying to figure out how to tell my son about this subject since he's 11 just this past weekend. Seems he has learned a little before I was ready to tell him. Anyway, that's a different discussion.....Originally posted by madison's mom:
<STRONG>how do you keep a dog in heat from getting pregnant. sadie is supposed to be spayed in a couple weeks and can't come any sooner. what do i do?</STRONG>
Just keep Sadie away from male dogs for 21 days. A heat cycle is 21 days long. 1 week coming in, one week in, and one week going out. Anywhere after day 7 to about 16 are real prime times for a bitch in season and I use this word purposely because when they are in they will let anything and everything who tries to mate have a good time!
They become different in attitude and will go out of their way to find someone who will give them what they want so never let her outside unsupervised, even for a second. Male dogs can smell a bitch in season for up to two miles away and will travel! Even if they are usually really good at staying in the yard!
You can put doggie diapers on her if she spots alot. Or you can do it the homemade way. I use a pair of my husbands underwear since they have the opening that works for her tail perfectly. I line it with self sticking maxi pads.
