Posted: Wed Jul 09, 2008 7:54 pm Post subject: Can a spayed bitch still smell good? |
|
|
I ask this as Blu will not leave Emmy alone (if you know what I mean ) in the last couple of days. Usually he will have a try with Emmy every evening around tea time but we just tell Emmy to tell him off. But today and yesterday he has been driving me insane!
He is constantly licking her and climbing on her she was even sitting on the sofa with me and Blu was crying to get on her! I don't want to keep telling him to get off her but she has her stitches in her leg and if he is not careful he is going to pull them out
Emmy is 4 years old and was spayed a long time ago. Is it more to do with Blu and his hormones as he is nearly 17mths or is he smelling something on her?
Please help!!

Chase mated a spayed bitch the other day - we worked out she would have been due in season and she was flirting with him too. So yes I think they can . _________________ Sue |

Yes they can. My old girl always used to give off a scent when she would have been in season. _________________ Claire

Is it like humans and hysterectomies? Ovaries left in so they still have normal hormonal changes? _________________ Aberdon HPR's. Good-looking AND Intelligent.

No, ovaries are removed in dog spay.
But I believe that a small amount of the hormones are made in other locations in the body.
Slate is happy to hear she will still smell good though! _________________ Slate and Grey

It hasn't done that to Hester(my GWP) I've never had my boys after her after she was spayed and Flash was a very experienced stud dog - Hmm, maybe that's why he wasn't interested. Allez has only recently been used and he never bothers her either, and they live together with me in the house. Weird. _________________ Aberdon HPR's. Good-looking AND Intelligent.

Thanks all! So I just need to see this one out then?! Gosh, if he is like that with Emmy, I can't even begin to imagine what he would be like with the real thing!!  _________________ Lisa, Blu and Emmy

Some bitches seem to have "sex appeal" regardless of age or whether or not they've been speyed. Our Sula was one of them, and one time I was "accused" of taking out an in-season bitch. My reply was "she was speyed 5 years ago" (she was 12 at the time ) _________________ Liz |

It's funny you should say that Liz as Emmy always used to attract the interest of other males before we even got Blu. Maybe she just a sexy girl!!  _________________ Lisa, Blu and Emmy

That's what my vet reckons - some bitches have "it", others haven't  _________________ Liz |
