Female dog owners - advice please!

[Jacks50]

I feel slightly silly putting this on the forum but my young female dog has just come into her first season and I've been reading online about what your supposed to do and most people say keep them in for 3 weeks or walk them in places where you won't find any other dogs.

The prospect of keeping her in for 3 weeks is slightly terrifying - a young excitable dog kept in and 3 children on the run up to christmas!

So My question is what do you do with your un-spade dogs? Are there any places to walk semi-locally where not many dog walkers go? Or do you just keep them in?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

You can get a spray that will disguise the fact she is in season - that and keeping her on a lead should do the trick.
