Puppy Heat

Nyla just had her first heat and bled for about a month. Now her nipples are slightly swollen and I notice some light light blue shading at times. Is this normal? I see things about faking a pregnancy and stuff but should we see a vet?

Totally normal.... false pregnancy is very normal for Basenji bitches.... it will last about 3 to 4 weeks.

@jkent - None, Pyometra can happen to any intact dog.... and has nothing to do with false pregnancies.... at least not in my experience. My two girls right now will be 12 in December and January and have had false pregnancies every year (with the exception of when C-Me was bred and had a litter that year). This has been the same with all my bitches over many, many years...

Nothing strange is happening here at all. Discharge over a full month can happen - but it is normally only once a year. Pyometra can hit any bitch - regardless of false or real pregnancies.
