Smell from my bitch.

I suspect our wee dog is in heat again but the odd smell that goes with it is lingering this time.
How long should a season last?

I've given her a shower and its still there so it must be her glands.

usually it lasts about a month.

the smell is very hard to cover,

you can by some pants from vets with bleeding pads slotted in, or get an old pair of pants cut a tail hole and whip them on, covers the smell a good bit.

Bitches are usually on heat for about 3 weeks, first week is coming on, second week is the most receptive and third is going off, they can get pregnant in all the weeks.

Thanks you two.

The smell is horrendous ,it hits you as soon as you go into the living room.Have got the oil burner on continuously,its clinging to the carpet no matter what shake @vac I put down.
Even sitting up for a cuddle is a "smell tolerance" test.

Somehow it seems worse this time.

Poor dogs in the "dog house" and she hasnt done anything wrong.

Think I'll just have to get her done.

Just a thought ......... if the smell from your bitch is noticeably different and stronger this time it could be a sign that she has pyometra (womb infection). This usually occurs 1-2 months after a season and can either be an open pyometra (leaking pus) or a closed one which is usually more dangerous. If she were mine I would get her checked out by your vet to be on the safe side.
