How long does the 'heat' last?

Thanks!

* You should consider your pet to be \"in season\" for 21 days: 7 days coming into heat, 7 days in heat, 7 days going out. Though conception is most likely during the middle 7 days, Mother Nature doesn't always follow the rules. Confine your pet for the entire 3 weeks.

If you are planning to breed her, she will be in season for no more than 2 days. If you don't want to breed, she will be in season for 3 weeks -- longer if there are male dogs in the area.

Much longer if you own a male dog you are trying to keep away from her, who howls all night because he wants her.

Thanks everyone! No she is not going to be bred.

God bless!
