I have a staff ***** who is 9 months old and is just having her 1st season how long will she bleed for?
Answers:
most dogs are in heat for 3 weeks. 1 week going in, 1 week in, and 1 week going out. she should bleed for at least a week. do not breed her she is too young. if she is not of breed standard and you do not know anything about dog heat cycles or breeding have her spayed after she is out of heat. it is in the best interest of her health. every heat cycle you let her go through increases her chances of breast cancer, even after she is spayed. and not spaying her increases the chances of pyometria, where the uterus fills with pus and can be very dangerous, uterine and ovarian and other reproductive cancers. plus the chance she could be injured while in heat if intact male dogs are fighting for her. be responsible and have her spayed.
Hi,
I have a staffy cross who is also 9 months old and she has just started bleeding. From past experience this will last anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks. The hard part is keeping her off the furniture :)
Hopefully till it "pisses" you off ruining carpet till you spay her.
