Season

[Allison]

Hi everyone Sally is about 11 days into her second season and boy does she look fed up   Is it normal for cockers or any dog for that matter to go off their food? She only seems to eat 1 meal per day (if that ) at he mo.
 I even put her favourite chicken breast in with her kibbles and its still in her bowl
She is fast asleep on our bed which seems to be her favourite place at the moment.
We have managed to walk her, as there are no dogs on the moors near us but kept her on her lead. I look forward to hearing your replies.

Jessie went off her food big time, and was a right moody mare

Buttons is on her 2nd season to    must be about the same time as Sally roughly    she to has hardly eaten anything    and has been very sleepy, on our bed    I wouldn't worry to much, seems to be pretty normal

I've had 3 girls and 2 out of the 3 lost their appetite.

Kimmi has just finished hr first season, and she was right off her food.  Now we have another problem in that she wants to go out all the time and wee everywhere   Is this normal, or does anyone else have any ideas why she is doing this.  We have also had a few 'accidents' overnight which is very unusual as she has been 'clean' overnight since she was about 4 months old.  She is now just about 10 months.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

well I know jessie had a few accidents during her season aswell, although I am unsure why   do they retain fluid through that time more?    

[Kim]

I think that it is more likely to be the fact that the uterus is pressing on the bladder slightly, also bitches will scent mark, as do dogs, to let the boys know where they are & when they are ready  

[bluegirl]

I agree its pressure from the uterus

[lynseyloo]

really??? wow I thouht pressure would only ocur when pregnant    but it does make sense.
