Oh because I was just doing what the vet says . She said that it does not
matter if she is in her heat or not . Her heat is not even bothering her . She
is not acting any different . I dont think that she even understan what is
going on . But I could be wronge .

I think that the heat cycle actually lasts about 3 weeks to a
month. And I don't think it makes any difference to get her spayed before or
after her first heat, as long as you keep her from getting pregnant. It's
totally natural for a female dog to have a heat cycle, it does not hurt them.
IMO, I would wait a couple of more weeks before you get her spayed and let her
finish her cycle. It probably would make her more uncomfortable to have major
surgery during the cycle because they are going through all those hormonal
changes as it is.

Yeah i understand but the vet told me that she thinks that she will be
done by then ... She has been in heat now for 4 days and then it will be 4 more
days . that is the only reason she said that she will do it then ... the hole
PMS thing now is not really bothering her . And i also found out today that i
could have done all this before her frst heat . what do u think about that . i
have hurd through the grape vine that , that is not good for a female dog . do
you know anything about that ? Now i am wondering if i have waited to long . ?
Any opinions ??

I do not know this for a fact....but I have heard that the pain is a
little worse if it is done while the dog is in heat.......May not be anything
to that, but to be safe, I would probably wait till she is out of heat.....It
does make sense though if you compare it to PMS....I mean who wants to do
ANYTHING during that time??? lol

I have a 8 mo old female chi . She started her first heat about 4 days
ago . I am going to take her to get spayed on wed . I was wondering if
I could get some opinions about getting her done . I have never had the
joy of having a chi . So I have never had to deal with the hole vet
thing . Thank you in advance .
