Questionmy female bull terrier is on heat. please advise how long does it last.
AnswerAnisa,
All dogs are individuals like we are, the usual is about 3 weeks. They usually start with a bloody discharge which lightens some time during the second week. It may then go back to a bloody discharge or remain light in color, but they are still in heat. The thirteenth day is the fertile time in 90% of female dogs. There are cases of females being fertile as early as 4 days and as late as 25 days. So keep her confined during the whole time to prevent any unwanted matings.
