When Will Our Puppy Go Into Heat?
Q
When can we expect our 8 mo. old English Springer Spaniel to go into heat?. ~ Nancy Abner
A
Hello,
She may have been in heat already. Six months is when most dogs go into heat for the first time. Sometimes the first heat is a "silent" heat, where they don't have any bleeding. She will go back into heat every 6-7 months.
