Is it ever sensible to lead walk a bitch on heat? We are in week 3 - the smelliest most fertile week and have been tight lead walking in quieter areas before 8am. This morning I did have to lift up my girl as an intact suitor made advances, I pre emptively apologised and asked if the owner could lead his boy at which point he shouted "Stupid!" into my face! Am I stupid?! Vet said lead walk early. She's booked in for a spay in May. Advice was to allow one heat, then spay mid cycle. Bit shocked. Seems crackers to not walk at all for 3/4 weeks. Views appreciated thanks.
