I have four dogs 2 girls and 2 boys The younger female dog is in heat and the 2 male dogs want to get with?

Question

the female and they keep on barking . I want to know how long the female dogs last while being in heat

Answer 1

A dog will be in heat for three weeks. One week of coming into heat, one week of heat, and one week of coming out of heat. Day 11 is usually the peak and best time to get pregnant. As for the males the only suggestion I have is to have someone else take them until its over. Just putting them in a different room or different part of the yard wont help. A male dog can smell a female in heat from a mile away - literally.

Answer 2

The female is too young to have been bred at all. They need to be at least 2 years of age. Chances are she won;t raise the puppies even if they are born okay because she is just a baby herself. so be prepared to take a month or so off work so as you can feed them every 2 hours day and night for the first 2 weeks then every 3-4 hours day and night for weeks 3-4 until you can start weaning. To me butchering is the thousands of puppies and dogs, cats and kittens that are put to sleep each and every week because of those who breed dogs that should not be bred.There is virtually no chance any of the puppies will be the way you want them to be. In fact a survey I read just last week was that it's the worst reason of all for dogs to be bred as the breeders are almost always disappointed. You may get the colour and that's about all. Yes you have already bred her enough. Too much for one her age especially. You will no doubt get puppies. I am begging you to have her spayed. Right now would be the best for her, but if you have this litter and she lives through the birth please do it after. For each pup you breed one in a shelter will die. Please help preserve a life already started rather than just creating more that in turn will lead to even more deaths. I think you may have done this with the very best of intentions, but they are very misguided intentions. Please concider what I have said and have your female spayed and your male neutered. Even if it's only to take away the risks of many cancers later in life if they remain intact. EDIT: She has bred enough. Don;t let them breed anymore. By the way seeing as both are way too young to have had genetic testing however great their bloodlines are and however wonderful their show potential the pups still may have genetic problems. Show quality does not always mean breeding quality. Until they have both been tested at 2 years of age then neither should have been bred. Edit 2: Testing of the hips, eyes etc can;t be done until the dogs are 2 years of age. DNA just identifies the dog. It does not say if it is predisposed to any genetic defects that can be passed on. These tests can't be done until they are 2 years of age and fully mature. No one will certify them before.

Answer 3

She will stay in heat for about 3 weeks. You need to keep her away from the males at all times. You did not need to get a male and female dog if you weren't going to get them spayed and neutered. Gets them all fixed immediately because they will get pregnent eventually because the males will do anything to get to the females while they are in heat. Be a responsible pet owner and get them all fixed.

Answer 4

Neuter your dogs.

Spaying or Neutering Is Good for Your Pet
-Spaying and neutering helps dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives.
-Spaying and neutering can eliminate or reduce the incidence of a number of health problems that can be very difficult or expensive to treat.
-Spaying eliminates the possibility of uterine or ovarian cancer and greatly reduces the incidence of breast cancer, particularly when your pet is spayed before her first estrous cycle.
-Neutering eliminates testicular cancer and decreases the incidence of prostate disease.

Spaying or Neutering Is Good for You

-Spaying and neutering makes pets better, more affectionate companions.
Spaying a dog eliminates her heat cycle. Estrus lasts an average of six to 12 days, often twice a year, in dogs and an average of six to seven days, three or more times a year, in cats. Females in heat can cry incessantly, show nervous behavior, and attract unwanted male animals.
-Unsterilized animals often exhibit more behavior and temperament problems than do those who have been spayed or neutered.
-Spaying and neutering can make pets less likely to bite.
-Neutering makes pets less likely to roam the neighborhood, run away, or get into fights. Animal shelters are overburdened with surplus animals.
do it!

Answer 5

Instead of keeping them separate, why don't make an appointment with the vet for spay/neuter all four of them? You will be happy after you get them fixed (no worry of accidental breeding).

Answer 6

Why are you playing this game? Just get them spayed and neutered. Those male dogs will get to that female, I guarantee it.

Answer 7

um, you really should consider getting dogs fixed. it doesnt sound like you have any intentions of trying to be a breeder so they are pets, and pets should be fixed. they really do make better pets after the fact and the younger they are when the event takes place the better off they are...

also, if you don't you are fixing to have oh....best guess...about 13 doggies.

Answer 8

21 days but some are longer and some are shorter
