Special times need special care_what to do when dogs are in heat

As soon as autumn comes, there are more dogs in heat around them. A lot of shovel excrement official can worry: The little female dog in the home was ridden by unknown male dog carelessly how to do? What if a male dog fights with another dog because he is in heat? Today, we are going to talk about those things about dogs in heat.

How did you find the dog in heat?

Peak estrus

In fact, dogs are not seasonal breeding animals, but come into heat after a certain interval (5 to 7 months). Different breeds, different geographical locations and environments, the estrus time of dogs is different.

Most of the dogs around us are in heat in spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), but some dogs can also be in heat in winter and summer, so shoveling officials should not relax their vigilance.

Symptoms

Because Duoduo is a female dog, we will be more clear about the estrus symptoms of female dogs.

In the early stages of estrus, the bitch becomes restless and likes to run out. Drink more water than usual, and urinate more when you go out to run, and squat down to urinate a little after two steps.

Slowly, the bitch's "little peach" begins to swell, turn red, and flow red mucus with blood, just like our "big period". Decrease appetite, raise your tail and arch your back, and often lick "small peaches". When playing outside, they like to approach male dogs and sometimes climb over other dogs.

The male dog's estrus usually begins with the female dog's estrus, when the public will be brutal and aggressive, and will attract the opposite sex by urinating to delimit the territory. Many male dogs will scratch, climb over different objects or their owner's legs.

Matters needing attention during estrus

Because my family is a female dog, I will talk about the matters needing attention when the female dog is in heat. :

Wear pants

Shovel officials can prepare a pair of physiological pants (or dog tampons) for their bitches, which can prevent the dog's secretion from dripping and prevent it from doing some indecent behavior.

But my family is not used to it. After wearing it for her once, we gave up this practice and could only wipe the floor frequently and observe more.

Go out as little as possible

Estrus dogs, the mood will be more restless, and there are many dogs are lost in estrus, so as little as possible to let the dog go out, to prevent lost. When you go out to walk the dog, you must pay close attention to the interaction and communication between the dog and the dog when you go out to walk, and stop the riding behavior of the male dog in time.

But once it really happens, you must not pull it hard, which will cause secondary damage to the dog.

Shoveling officials who have male dogs at home must lead the rope well, one is to prevent fighting between male dogs, and the other is that many male dogs in heat are attracted by the smell of female dogs and get lost every year.

When Duoduo is in heat, we dare not go to places where there are many dogs. When we see a male dog, we try to make a detour. Sometimes we even pick up Duoduo and carry him on our shoulders. Shovel shit officials, it's really not easy!

Soothe emotions

Dogs are restless when they are in estrus. Shoveling officers should calm the dog's mood by interacting with the dog, rewarding snacks, distracting attention and calming the dog's restless heart.

Birth or sterilization

Considering that we had no energy to take care of the little milk dog, we made up our minds to take Duoduo to sterilization very early. When her first estrus ended and the weather turned cool, we took Duoduo to have an operation. (The picture below shows respiratory anesthesia before sterilization.)

Bitch surgery needs to open the stomach, so later also need to play pain-killing injection and anti-inflammatory injection, pay close attention to the healing of the wound, a week or so can be fully recovered. It would be a lot easier for a male dog.

If there are shoveling officials who want dogs to have babies, they should master more knowledge of dog's pregnancy and postpartum care.

However, I suggest to follow the advice of pet doctors and sterilize their babies as soon as possible if they have no intention of having children, so as to avoid all kinds of urinary and reproductive system diseases and pathological changes when dogs get older.

Finally

Hope that every dog can be happy and safe through the "special period" under the care of the shoveling officials. That's all for

today. See you next time.
