In the same way, as many male puppies do, male Bichon Frise can become sexually mature at the age of 5 months. Male dogs normally reach sexual maturity between the ages of 12 and 15 months, when they have reached their maximum physical size. If you want to breed your dog at any time of the year, these males can serve as the fathers. If you do not plan to have your dog neutered, it is important to be aware that elevated testosterone levels in male dogs can cause aggressive behaviour.
Like most other breeds of dog, female Bichon Frise puppies normally attain sexual maturity between the ages of 6 and 9 months. They enter their reproductive cycles twice a year, on average. They may also have a crimson discharge and a tendency to lick their vulva area for up to ten days. If you want to breed your Bichon Frise, you should talk to your vet first to make sure the process goes smoothly and your dog stays healthy.
Like many other dog breeds, bichpoos have two annual heat cycles. Their gestation period is just about 9-10 days long, however, their heat cycle can extend anywhere from 21-30 days. A swelling vulva and a bloody discharge are the first symptoms of heat in a Bichpoo. They may also lose their appetite while showing increased devotion and playfulness. The discharge will become more watery and transparent as the heat cycle continues.
If you want to breed your Bichpoo, you need to do so while the dogs are in their reproductive phase. Bringing the dog to a stud dog's location or inviting the stud dog to your home are both viable options. It's important to remember that not all Bichpoo females will enter heat at the same time. Some may begin as early as 6 months old, while others may wait as long as 18 months before experiencing their first heat. the veterinarian is the best resource for determining when your dog may enter heat.
There are four distinct phases to a dog's heat cycle: (a) Proestrus, characterized by a swollen vulva and a bloody discharge; (b) Estrus, the fertile period during which the dog can become pregnant; (c) Diestrus, characterized by a decrease in discharge and a return to normal behaviour; and (d) Anestrus, during which the dog is no longer in heat.
