The dog's estrus cycle is divided up into several stages. The first stage, pro estrus, usually lasts about 9 days. During this time the female's vulva swells and a discharge may be noted, although the female will not be receptive to the male. The actual estrus stage, or 'standing heat', lasts 3-21 days with an average of 9 days and occurs at the end of pro estrus. During this time the female is receptive to the male and will continue to have vulvar swelling and discharge.

This can vary from one dog to the next. Typically, the heat cycle lasts around two to three weeks. The female's vulva will swell and then bleed for several days.

We monitor our telephone calls and find the majority of calls are answered within 3 rings and all of our calls are answered within 10 rings. The number of telephone calls varies by the season (cold/flu season has a higher volume) and the time of day (8:00-9:00 a.m. and 3:00 - 4:30 p.m.). We will make every effort to keep your "hold time" to the absolute minimum.

Because home pregnancy tests detect hCG, it is best to collect urine samples containing the highest presence of the hCG hormone. Diluted samples (from drinking high volumes of water / frequent urination) are not recommended and can diminish test accuracy. Instead, first morning urine is considered the ideal sample as it contains the most concentrated presence of hCG. Otherwise, waiting several hours (4-5 minimum) is also considered sufficient duration for an HPT.
