SPARK NOTES OF THE DOGGIE PERIOD FOR YOU:
Number1️⃣ ) Female dogs get pregnant on their Period! During their Heat Cycle is when ovulation occurs and they can become pregnant.

Number 2️⃣ Heat cycles begin as early as 6 months old. And for larger breed dog's who mature slower it may be even later around 8 months old. You may not even notice your dog's first heat until after they are 1 year old, because the first heat was so light and hard to notice in imature dog's.

Number 3️⃣ Unlike humans who gets a period every month, a dog's period happens about 2x a year and the cycle lasts 1 month.

~ Time stamp: 1:20 Watch the video to learn about when they are receptive to getting pregnant!

Number4️⃣ ) Dog's do not get CRAMPS and have painful heat cycles like humans. Their uterus is not trying to expel anything. The uterus is bleeding building up tissue.

Number 5️⃣) If they do not get pregnant, they simply absorb the uterine lining and this may make them at risk for pyometra, which is a uterine infection.

👩‍⚕️ If your dog is not spayed, they are at risk for getting pregnant and at risk for developing pyometria. This emergency surgery can cost anywhere form $1,500 to $5,000 depending on how sick your dog is at the time of the surgery.

Alright guys! I hope this helped you understand the dog heat cycle in the simplest terms. Subscribe to my veterinary channel and I will see you next week.
