JRsMoM Member Posts: 27 From:Oklahoma Registered: Dec 2003	posted 02-27-2004 05:18 PM I know these might be silly questions but: Do you leave them on all day? What about when they use the rest room - do u just take them off when they go out to use it? How long does the bleeding usually last - the whole heat cycle or just a portion of it - and if just a portion how long is that usually?

Instead of spending a ton on doggy diapers you should go and buy whitey tightys. Then buy the biggest pads that you can find. Put the undies on backwards to the tail sticks out of the hole.

susan_cude@hotmail.com Member Posts: 813 From:Santa Maria, Ca. Registered: Nov 2003	posted 02-27-2004 09:39 PM Hi! When Casey was in heat i bought a doggie diaper for her. I would buy one made of material not plastic. I got her one made of jean material, its alott more comfortable for her than the plastic ones. Then buy ultra thin sanitary napkins, and cut them in half! there is no sense in paying what you would pay for basically the same thing at a pet store. I also used baby powder spray for the oder that often accompanies the heat cycle. Do not spray it directly on her vulva, just a little on her back. Hope this helps you! P.S. I would not walk her during her heat, dogs find a way out when they smell her,,,just my opinion! Susan IP: Logged

Bleeding usually last for 9 days and the amount of blood passing reduces as the female gets closer to standing for the males i have added a section on heat cycles from the book of the bitch hope this helps you out. mike Stage one of the cycle is called:- Pro-oestrus which lasts on average 9days this is the beginning of the heat. Stage 2 :- Oestrus lasts on everage 9days this is the time the female will stand and allow the male to mate with her its also around this time the female is ovulating. Stage 3 :- Met-oustrus happens when the bitch was not mated and this causes the body to react as if pregnancy was present and can last upto 90days So its wise to wait till she has been out of heat for about 4weeks before spaying her this will give her vulva and hormones time to go back to there normal levels but a chat with your vet will determine when is best to have the operation done. I dont have to worry about pants or pads for my dogs as they clean themselves so much when heat you would not know they were I can pin point roughly when my girls are coming into heat. They are not allowed on the furniture so i dont have to worry about that and the house has flooring down apart from the lounge so i dont have to worry about the mess i just get out the mop and clean the floors lol mike IP: Logged
bullylove1 Member Posts: 173 From:Canada Registered: Feb 2004	posted 03-01-2004 11:00 AM My pup just went into heat again, and what we do for her is buy little boys underwear, it has sizes on the pack, and we also buy womens pads. We put them on "normally" but cut a small hole in the back for her tail to come out of. I find it pretty cute. This time we bought spiderman undies. You should see the looks we get from people! We bought her doggie undies from a pet store but when we got home and opened the box, what we pulled out was black and leather and looked like a thong! No thanks, not for my girl. I find its also cheaper this way. About 7 bucks at Walmart for a 3-pack of undies and 4 buck for a pack of pads. (PS Wings help keep it in place) Good Luck!

Lets understand them instead, so we can provide responsible ownership and give them a chance to show the world why they are so deserving of our love. IP: Logged
