Female Dog

This is the first female that I have owned from a puppy and I dont know if she is in heat or has a problem. Her vaginal area is swollen pretty big. She has had no change in mood, behavior, or appetite. Is this a problem or is it normal for her first time comming in hear?

Answer #1

How OLD is she?? There is such a thing as puppy vaginitis…and this causes swelling also…

p

Answer #2

Sounds like shes just in heat, the swelling will most likely last ~3 weeks.
