My female Chihuahua


Question Posted Wednesday January 23 2008, 2:30 pm

My female chihuahua is around 5 months old now, Lucy, she is gorgeous by the way. Well, I was wondering when small dogs like her usually go into heat. I have two other male chihuahuas and I don't want any accidents. I plan to pay for a stud since my males are bigger than her.
Thanks, I'd like to know soon please.

a female dog goes into heat once in the winter and once in sunner you can telll exact days cuz they will have a period. So, buy a doggy diaper if you dont want blood everywhere. And a dog is usually in heat for 2 weeks.

For small dogs like her, it's best to get them...
"Professionally Breeded", because a lot of the time the heads of the pups will get stuck, and might cause your dad plus the pups to die. =//

Before breeding you dog, consult a vet.

We wanted to breed our chihuahua, and the vet said if we were using her soley for the purpose of breeding her, to do.."yadaddada". Talk to your vet if you want to breed her. But if Lucy is a house pet, don't breed her. It can be dangerous, and can take time off of there life.

If you have to other male chihuahuas, and your female isn't fixed, keep them in seperate rooms and be careful.

She should go in heat at around 6 or 7 months.

Chihuahuas become sexually mature at around six months.


Before you decide to breed her, check out this article. I am not a big fan of breeding. I work at a veterinary hospital, and we see tons of puppies with genetic and temperament problems, some of which we end up putting to sleep. Also, please take into consideration that there are more than enough dogs (and cats) in the world, including Chihuahuas.
