Why has my dog not come into season?
This condition may be caused by a number of factors, including malnutrition, excessive physical activity, medications that interfere with fertility, or a lack of exposure to other cycling females. Additionally, hormonal imbalances and genetic disorders may prevent normal estrous cycles.
Can a dog be in heat and not bleed?
However, the most obvious recognizable sign of heat in dogs is vaginal bleeding. This may not become apparent until a few days after the female has come into estrus. Some female dogs experience heavy vaginal bleeding during estrus, while other dogs have minimal bleeding. If you are concerned, consult your veterinarian.
Why is my female dog not going into heat?
Abnormal heat cycles are an important cause of infertility in female dogs. Irregular heat cycles can be caused by malnutrition, hormonal imbalances, genetic disorders, ovarian tumors, infections, diseases, and other health problems.
What are the signs of a silent heat in dogs?
Sometimes, the signs of a dog in heat are so slight, they go unnoticed. In a silent heat, all external physical signs (like vaginal bleeding, discharge, or swollen vulva) are so minimal that you don't see them. Not only that, but her behavior might not change—she may show absolutely no interest in male dogs, either.
