A dog's estrus cycle usually lasts 2 to 3 weeks, of which the estrus period (also called estrus) is part of it. The maternal period generally lasts about 7 to 14 days, but the specific duration may vary depending on individual differences in dogs.
During the period of pregnancy, female dogs will have vaginal bleeding, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. At this time, female dogs usually attract the attention of male dogs and show more sexual tendencies.
If you do not plan to breed your dog, it is recommended to take special care during the first trimester and avoid contact with unneutered male dogs. At the same time, considering neutering surgery can effectively control the dog's estrus cycle and avoid unwanted pregnancy. Talk to your veterinarian for more information about your dog's specific condition and recommendations for spaying or neutering.
