QuestionQUESTION: I have a pit bull little girl and I am not sure when she should start menstruating, can you please answer this question for me?
ANSWER: Hello Marlene- Your girl will come into Heat any time after 8 months old. This can happen anytime from 8 months to 12 months of age.
I hope this has answered your question. She can bleed for 22 days ... 2 x per year or 3x per year.

QUESTION: Should my little girl have a litter on her first cycle and do they experience pain/cramps?
AnswerHi Marene- You should wait until she is 18 months or older, if possible. After 18 months old her body and mind is more mature.
I don't beleive they experience cramps like humans do. Also, they bleed much longer than a human tends to bleed.
Make sure you have a mate that is 18 months or older, too.
BEST wishes to you!
Marie
