Menopause PUPPIES: "Is it POSSIBLE?"

It has been a few days that I am so disturbed about this concern. Our old dog gave birth to six cute puppies at the age of 9. As much as possible, we do not want her to get pregnant for the second time around. It happens that she has her boyfriend without knowing by us in the house. We found out that she sees him in the yard at night. To make it short, we thought that she is having her 'menopausal puppies.' I tried to research about it. Mr. Google provided some information and acquire the real fact that dogs can not undergo a menopausal period. "Do you like to raise puppies?" "Do you like researching things on the Internet?"

For what I know dogs can give birth at an old age, they are not like humans. I do not like to raise puppies, but I like to make Internet researches.

I was also surprised that old dogs can still give birth. However, there some secondary complications based on what I read. It is nice to see you here. How are you?

The older the dog the more complications she can have @Shavkat . Once these puppies reach 3 months old; you should have the Momma spayed.

I agree, my friend. I read about it that an old dog could have secondary complications. I noticed that she took more than 12 hours of labor.

@Shavkat Yeah, that can be very dangerous. It puts a serious strain on their heart.

Not sure of how their system works. As of now, I don't have any puppies or I don't see raising one in the near future. Yeah, I like researching internet for all the silly doubts that I get on my mind. It's very convenient for us to get handful of information when in need.

I can feel you that we need time and energy to raise a puppy. We cannot just leave them in a certain place and let them survive of their own. In this modern world, the Internet made our life so convenient as compared to the old days. We do not need to go to the library that much.

@smileyhema If I am going to put in my two cents on the whole idea, some people in other countries eat dog's meat. It cannot be denied the real fact and is terrible to do this. I am not going to drop the names of nations, concerning their practices. Sometimes I am an old school in terms of researching and prefer to do it in the library. But then, I still need to be quick in certain situations.

@Shavkat That's true. Puppies are just like babies and humans. They need a bit of hand holding and they will take care of us once they are raised well. We should never leave them alone at any stage. They have sentiments too. I agree with you on the internet point as well. Wow, life has moved to a great point with the advent of all the technologies and things. We should really respect the inventions behind these.. Though, it has its own cons too, we should be happy as a user of the current world..

We also have fences and I cannot imagine how our neighbor's dog gets in. I think I need to check the fences tomorrow.

Here it is, my friend! You really researched for it. if Ingrid would be here, we’ll be talking about this nonstop. But how can we say if the dog is on its menopausal stage?

Finally, I tried my best to search for it. I am so troubled thinking about it while working online. I am sure she would be saying her wisdom about it. According to what I read, dogs do not have a menopausal cycle. Even if they are old, they could give birth puppies.

@mlgen1037 I agree. It is a simple concern but we can learn from it.

That’s new information for me that dogs do not undergo menopausal periods. Meaning they do ovulation in even i. Their old age. Your dog still found time to really find her partner to make her babies still at her age. I hope she is able to take care of his puppies.

@hereandthere I am sure she would not get pregnant next time, my friend.

@Shavkat but she did get pregnant and you were shocked by it so if you really want it to stop 100%, take her to the vet

I like raising puppies. I like puppies to stay forever a puppy. They are so cute and funny. But I do not know when do dogs have their menopause.

I had checked the Internet about it. Dogs do not have a menopausal stage, unlike women. I do love them if they are babies.

That's a very prolific female dog you have to be pregnant at 9 years old. Now it is time to ask around for the potential people to adopt the puppies.

In time, they would be given to some friends of ours. Some of them are being reserved now.

I do like looking things up online, yes. Even though dogs don't go through menopause did it say if dogs if a certain age shouldn't be getting pregnant?

It was said that old dogs can still get pregnant but it would be risky for them though.

I think I had indicated in my discussion that dogs are not like women who would have a menopausal period.
