Hilux 4x4 Forum

I suppose it's still a medical type question.

Are there any Vets on the forum or anyone in the know how?

My Staffie female is in season and my male is going bananas ( poor bugger ), went to the Vet today to see if I could get any pills to stop the season, but these pills are no longer available. The only option is to keep the dogs separated or send the female to the kennels.

The kennels cost R130/day and that's quite heavy as a season can last upto 3 weeks.

So here's my question:

In the 3 week cycle of the season when is the female at the most danger and most susceptible to conceive. I'd like to time it right to send her to the kennels.

Toe my teef in hitte was het my rottie ook mal gegaan. Ons het toe 'n kannetjie spry gekoop by 'n petshop wat jy dierek op die "muis"
spuit. Dit het soos 'n bom gewerk en nie weer probleme gehad nie. Ek sal my vrou vra wat die naam is, maar dis iets in die lyn van STOP ODOR.

Ja, those pills were stopped because there were bad side effects in some cases, some resulted in sterility. Keeping them apart is one thing, but you (and your neighbours) will have to put up with a lot of whining, so the better option is to take the male to the kennels. I've tried sprays without much success - would also be interested in the product name of that spray.

I'm not a vet, but as I understand it, the most fertile period starts after she stops spotting (about five to seven days after the onset of her season) ...... often she will keep the male away from her in that initial period.

I sometimes wonder why no-one has yet come up with a working design for a canine chastity belt.

Staffie puppies are the most beautiful ever! Why stop them?

Laat weet wat die "spray" se naam is! Dalk werk dit vir tieners ook.....

Die spray se naam is NO MATE. Vervaardiger is DARO en die blikkie het my R35 gekos

Sorry about the quality of pic, still using a blackberry 8520

Wonder of dit vir die Aussies ook werk?

@ 4x4BEES - thank you for the info, off to the pet shop now.
@ FD - they are beautiful puppies and become even better when they grow. Problem is that my male is a rather large rotti and the staffie has only just turned 1yr old.

@ MD - I heard something similar that the female will only stand in the last week of the cycle, basically when she stops spotting.

I only want to spay her at about 2yrs old as I believe that 'coming into season' is important in a dogs growth.

I waited until my female was 3yrs before she was spayed.

'n Ander spray wat ek in die 80's gebruik het was "piepie-off". Dit was die produk se naam, so as dit nie geskik is hier nie, verwyder asb die post. Ek het dit ook op my bakkie se wiele gebruik sodat die reun kan wegbly.

En ek dog NO MATE was erg!!

Wat kan jy doen? As dit die naam is, is dit die naam? Jy kan die mooi woorde ook aan die honde verduidelik, hulle leer baie gou, glo my!

Try one of these on the Rotti.

Nee, hulle kannie lees nie.

Die dieretjies (kinders) ka groot skade berokken! Het my Lab dame laat regmaak. Twee weke later op verlof Margate toe gegaan en die man en die dam in twees verskillende gedeeltes van die erf gelaat, groot genoeg om heeldag te hardloop. Die meester (boerboel) het besluit dit was tyd om die afskort heining (staal) te buig en al my besproeing ( 1m begrawe) soos 'n back acktor uit te haal om die dame te beindruk. My skoon-pa wat my huis en die honde na gekyk het, het op dag twee nie meer oor die honde se welstand gepraat nie! Ek het onraad vermoed! Week later toe ek by die huis kom was daar nie 'n plant, gras, blomme, besproeing of honde kaste oor nie! Alles verwoes oor een groot reun wat soek maar kon nie kry nie! My vakansie was nie so duur nie, maar die skade was.

So hou hulle weg van mekaar af? nee gaan nie werk nie, wel nie op dieselfde erf nie. Ons het nou die matriek uitslae gekry, so hou jul dogters in die huis asb!
