this post has been edited 2 time(s) To everyone on here saying neutering CAN NOT/DOES NOT cause aggression: <<A recent report of the American Kennel Club Canine Health Foundation reported significantly more behavioral problems in spayed and neutered bitches and dogs. The most commonly observed behavioral problem in spayed females was fearful behavior and the most common problem in males was aggression.(12) I'm not saying it happens everytime (I have had males that prove that) but yes it can happen(I also own a dog to prove that)...as may very well be the case with this persons former dog. With this said...my males will continue to be neutered if not being bred or shown. |

I just have to say, that where I live, you technically can't take a bitch in heat outside. I think it would be obvious, even without rules in place, that you shouldn't be taking one to a public dog park. |

quoteSorry to hijack a thread (and FWIW I agree with everyone saying to get the bitch to a vet and spay her) but that's interesting FDK, do you have a link to the report, or any other info about it? Please e-m me if you do (and if you don't mind doing so), thanks very much in advance  < Off to google it. |

I am at a friends but when I get home I will answer all of your questions. Also my Mum wouldn't let the dog out of site in a park. Sophie tends to stay near whoever is walking her! |

Me and my mum were just talking. And we realised she could of got pregnant the night she went missing - we found her at someones house, but they had a male collie. They seemed to get on well... She is going to the vets this week anyway for a check-up, so I will ask then... Lauren of -Dkk- |

quoteThe people asking you about breeding your bitch are not asking you to breed her with Joe Blow's dog down the street; they're talking about purebred puppies. Try not to forget that.....they're not looking to have a mix breed. You have not answered the question as to whether your bitch was in season when she got out, or when your mom took her to the park. Do you know for a fact that she was even able to get to the collie down the street? I would certainly have an x-ray done on her if she is past the 48 day, before that she would have to have a sonagram done to see if there is a heartbeat. After the 48 day the spine is developed enough to show up on x-rays. Good Luck. |

She is in season now. Yes she did have access to the collie as she went missing and we eventually found her in someones house and they had a male border collie. I will keep you all updated but unfortunetely if she is pregnant we are going to spay her as we think it is to much to put her though. Lauren |

I'd get an x-ray. If she's in season NOW than she would not have been bred a month or two ago. Do you breed dogs; I mean do you and your family understand how seasons work; She wouldn't be in season now if she's been bred. That's not making any sense at this point. There could be other reasons why she's doing the things she's doing. |

Atleast I think she is in season... |

What makes you think she's in season? Does she have a discharge or not? |
