In heat too early?

In heat too early?
Clowie had her second heating season today. Last time she had was April 14. I heard that it has to be about 6 months before she comes in heat again. But it's only been 4 months. Is this normal?

Yes, it can be pretty normal for them to cycle again in 4 months. Just keep an eye on her, sometimes they are subject to get Pyo with an irregular heat cycle, watch for any mucous discharge right after the cycle, or even during. They can get a closed Pyo, if she gets sluggish and acts sick you should take her to the vet to be checked out.

It's not something you want to worry yourself about, but with a female you always need to be on the lookout for Pyo around their heat cycle. Anytime they start acting real lethargic or you see any kind of discharge that doesn't look normal you need to get them to the vet and be checked.
