First, This post is for new puppy owners.
If your dog is already on heat and you don't know about this, then you really shouldn't have a dog,
Lets get started.
What does it mean when a 'Dog is on Heat'?
Heat, or Estrus is a stage in female dogs when they are more receptive to mating.
During heat periods, the vulva gets swollen and blood drops from the vulva.
There are three stages of heat
- Pro-Estrus
- Estrus
- An-Estrus
A dog comes on heat twice a year, though this varies depending on the individual dog and health conditions.
