BLEEDING

[REBELBABY]

Memphis still isnt really bleeding, shouldnt she be bleeding alot if shes in heat?

When my lab goes into heat it starts out really light for the first few days then progressively gets heavier. Now when I say heavier I mean drops of bright red blood. She never really has a large amount of blood. So she will have this for a week or so, then it will start to taper off again. I'm not sure if it is the same for all breeds of dogs. My bully has boy parts and is neutered anyway.

I was going to say when we had our female dane, she would start light then it would get brighter and just drops a bit more often but no large amounts and such...i'm imagine dogs are the same in heat but not sure....Our bully is a male as well...All I know is we did doggy diapers for our dane they didn't make them big enough so we ended up putting undies over the diapers as well! she really hated us then!!

I don't think it is a lot... it is in spots. I'll tag a few member to help

It does start out light, but sometimes they just have a light heat if you will, where they just don't bleed that much, and then the next time might be a heave heat.

Hi there Katy! When Emma went into her first heat last year she spotted lightly for the first week, kinda like a prelude before she fully started spotting. After that, and especially at nighttime, her spotting was much heavier. I got her some panties from Petsmart and bought some thin maxi pads from Walmart. I changed her in the morning, when I got home from work and then before bedtime. For Emma, her bleeding was really heavy spotting at times. It lasted for nearly 3 weeks too and then very light spotting for one more week after that. Hope that helps.

i keep second guessing if shes even in heat, i do know shes pretty swollen and Rebel wont stay off of her

Oh I would say she's in heat then, especially if she's swollen and spotting. Emma got really swollen, I couldn't believe it myself and thought something was wrong, lol. Is Rebel neutered?

well see im not sure if shes spotting the only time i saw blood was on the pad that was in the kennel she was in but other than that nothin, and no Rebels not fixed, were either physically constantly trying to keep him off her or one of them is in the kennel, ugh its a real pain especially since she just got there
