If your female dog comes into heat before you can get her spayed, here is what you can do: First, mark down on your calendar the date your dog starts her heat and the date she ends her heat. Please remember that when a female dog is in heat, she will be receptive to male dogs. Keep your dog on a leash at all times and consider going for walks where you do not expect to meet other dogs. Allowing her out in your back yard unsupervised could also draw unwanted attention from the male dogs in your area, so supervised outdoor time is advised. Doggy diapers can help. Washable, waterproof, sanitary pants are also helpful. The doggy diaper or sanitary dog pants and pad may need to be changed as many as three or more per day. Allow your dog some supervised time outside without the diaper to allow her skin to breathe and minimize irritation.
