Is a 13-month-old Shitzu dog old enough to have puppies?
@luthrasunny Good afternoon
My Shitzu girl is 13 months old her second periods will start in a day or two. Is she big enough to have babies.
Mating is not necessary and we strongly recommend against it becasue pregnancy is tough, painful and a dog has no need to go through that.
