Hello there! I understand why you're concerned; it can be a bit puzzling to see your spayed dog showing signs of being in heat. Let's see if we can make sense of what's happening.
One possibility is a condition called "ovarian remnant syndrome." Sometimes, a small piece of ovarian tissue remains after surgery, and it can still produce hormones, causing heat-like signs. Another possibility might be a hormonal imbalance, which might cause similar symptoms.
To support your pup at home, keep a close eye on her behavior and look for signs such as swelling, discharge, or unusual interest from other dogs. While these symptoms are not immediately dangerous, they do suggest an underlying issue that we might want to investigate further.
Be sure to watch for any signs that her condition might be more serious. These include excessive lethargy, loss of appetite, or anything else that seems out of the ordinary. If you notice these, it's important to seek veterinary attention promptly.
I'd love to help you further unravel this mystery and discuss the next steps. Why not book a video consultation with Dial A Vet? It'll be convenient for you and helpful for us to assess your dog's specific situation together. We'll get to the bottom of this!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
