If your female dog has not been neutered or spayed, she is considered to be intact. Intact dogs tend to have their first heat cycle somewhere between six to 12 months of age. However, larger dog breeds may sometimes have their first seasonal mentrual cycle when they are 12 months or older.

Declawing refers to the surgery performed on cats to remove their claws to prevent them from scratching. Contrary to popular belief, it is in no way comparable to removing a toenail. This is because a cat’s claws are closely attached to its toe bones. The surgery removes the last joint of the cat’s toe bone to ensure that the claw does not grow back. Many veterinarians are reluctant to offer declawing services, as it is not beneficial for cats. In fact, declawing can lead to many painful complications.

Toys are essential to keep your dog healthy through mental stimulation and physical exercise. However, not all toys are suitable or safe for your dog.
