Sex

Sexual maturity in the British Timber canine occurs between the ages of six and twelve months, as it does in the majority of canine breeds. It's worth noting, however, that the precise time may differ across people. Also, between six and twelve months of age is when most female dogs experience their first heat, or estrus.

Female dogs have hormonal changes that make them fertile throughout their two- to three-week heat cycle. During this stage, kids may display behaviours that indicate they are sexually mature. Symptoms include an enlarged vulva, greater sociability, and increased urine as a means of marking territory for mating.

The opposite is true for male dogs, who may show an increased interest in female dogs in heat by engaging in activities including increased sniffing, marking, and restlessness. It's crucial to remember that intact male dogs may display more aggressive behaviour during mating season since they are so eager to find a partner.

British Timber Dogs, like other dogs, typically attain sexual development between six months and a year of age, however this might vary by breed and by person. However, responsible breeding practices usually involve waiting until a dog is physically and emotionally mature before breeding.
