Poor old Ruby

She is certainly different whilst on heat, very clingy. If she could get inside your legs she would.

Everytime DB sits at the dining room table, there she is:
Little paw in constant touch - ah!

Same whilst we are sitting down in the lounge, or in the kitchen, as close to the safety gate as possible.

She watched us decorate the tree without a care in the world, just a quick sniff and so far, she has totally ignored it.

Mind you, talking about her heat. We think, that after just 10 days, she may have finished. She is dry, swelling starting to go down, tail flagging has gone away and she no longer thrusts her bottom into us. Now, watch that statement come back to bite us! We shall continue to keep her on a lead for walks and watch her for another two weeks just to be sure.

  1. I've never had to live through a dog's heat cycle. Our Vet's always recommended the spay be done before the first heat at around seven months.

    I remember seeing my neighbour's house under siege when their girl went into heat. Every dog in the area found their way to the house!

    1. Our vet prefers one heat cycle, something to do with growth plates. Intact male dog next door wasn’t bothered.
