Barbara Earnhardt Webboard User Reg: 03-09-2006 Posts: 98 Loc: Kannapolis, NC 28083 Offline	First I want to say this is a friend of mine dogs that I am looking to get a puppy from. First She (dog) went in to heat last Febraury and yet to come back in to heat. She has been wormed, and is very healthy looking .i.e good wieght, very active, Has been around two other females that were in heat. But still no heat. What are your thoughts or what test should she ask for at the vets office? Thank you Barbara Earnhardt

It's not unusal for them to be on a 5 month or 7 month heat cycle.... if she's that worried about it, I would suggest having her vet run a thyroid panel. Sometimes if the thyroid isn't functioning properly it can throw off the reproductive system of a dog (both male and female) Cindy cindyr@leerburg.com
