I have a question for the more experienced owners. I have only ever had male dogs and two years ago, got my first golden cocker bitch. She had her first season at seven months, and her second and third seasons right on schedule six months apart. She was due in season the first week in January but so far nothing. I have left her coat a little longer due to the time of tear but she sleeps upstairs so I would have spotted any blood but nothing. I am really good at worrying over the dogs so just wondering if this is something I should be having heart attacks over? She is in great form etc. same jolly self:-)

Absolutely nothing to worry about, perfectly normal. It usually happens when you decide to mate a bitch and plan for a particular month. :)

Thank you for the prompt reply. Very grateful:-)

Hahahaha, Goldmali!!! So True.
