I have two female puppies that are Just shy of six months old, I’d like to get them both neutered ideally before their first heat to lower their cancer risk, vet says they aren’t doing it during lockdown. I’m quite worried about it, presumably this is going to go on for a while, does anyone know how much does their risk go up? I’ve read they can have medicine to delay it, would it be reasonable to ask for this? Also I’m not sure if one of them may have come on a period today, there’s quite a lot of blood on the patio that I can’t find the source of, it looked like more than I would expect for a dog period (not that I know anything about that!) but I checked them both over and I couldn’t find the source of the blood. Jet washed the patio so I could see if there was anymore and there isn’t. I already had dog knickers for when they are in heat so I put them on them both for a few hours to see which one it might be and they’re clean. How much blood would they lose in a day normally? And would it be just for a little while in the day or all day? So confused
