Chloe in heat,pet pics

Dear Chloe came out of the macaws room with blood on the floor.My first thought was that 1 of them bit her through their cage ,but I heard no yelp.When I held her & checked her,I saw she was fine,when I put her down on the floor,my jeans had blood on them.She is in heat.
How long ago has it been since I had a dog in heat? My Maggie was spaded probably before her first.I remember Sadie,my first collie.It`s been 20 years at least since she died at the age of 14.Back then,I was unaware of the good reasons for spading a dog.I just figured,hey,she`s an indoor dog,I walk her,she`s not going to become pregnat.When she was 10 years old,she became really sick.I then found out why I should have spaded her.She got an infection in her urterus & was septic throughout.The vet operated on her,& through many prayers for her & going over to the vets to visit her,she came through,got strong,came home & lived 4 more years.I was so thankful.
I bought doggie diapers.Chloe doesn`t think much of them,but is getting used to them.I had to look it up to see how long she`d be this way after the dh asked me,& it says 3 weeks.I didn`t think it was that long,but we shall see.
Bandit feels bad for her,& lays a toy on her back to get her to play.
