Hi, I have a friend who has a 13month old Weimaraner bitch - she thinks she may be coming into season for the 1st time.

What are the signs? Also her Weimaraner has a creamy coloured discharge is this normal for a Weimaraner?

Any advice would be great!!

Thanks!

well ive got 3 bitches and i knew because they started to swell just before there season ,not sure about creamy coloured discharge sorry x

A creamy coloured discharge isn't normal and could mean a vaginal infection or worse, so should be checked by a vet. A bitch that isn't in season should not have any kind of discharge at all unless pregnant -and then the discharge is colourless. When she is abut to come into season, first she will swell a little in the vulva, then there will be a tiny amount of blood a day or so before she starts bleeding properly. The easiest way is to lightly dab her vulva with a white tissue each day, and see if it comes away red.

OP......I see your business....the lady you purchased it from has been breeding weims for many years, so why not have a chat with her?

Hi, yes - I did have a chat with Theresa,(breeder) she was more than happy to help!
Thank you all for taking the time to reply.

Kind regards,
