Puberty

Lilli has had a hard time the last few weeks.

Puberty hit about three weeks ago. In other words Lilli was on heat for the first time. Luckily though we don’t have so many male dogs in the area and those that are, we only see out walking. So in that regards we haven’t had to keep her under lock and guard. But otherwise she has left a trail of blood spots around the house and had a bit of a problem holding onto pee at times. The physical changes seemed to confuse her a bit as well. There was definately a lot of licking going on at times and various bits and pieces were quite swollen.

But the worst of it is over now and she has settled down again. I guess that in the next few weeks we will have to make an appointment with the vet.
