Question
How long does the female English bulldog cycle on an average? How often do they cycle?

Answer
The normal heat cycle last 3 weeks from the first day you notice bleeding. For most dogs, it occurs every 6 months, but this is variable.  Some dogs only come in season once a year, others every 8 or 10 months. Generally speaking, once you have been through 2 heat cycles, you can determine the schedule your dog will be one from there.
