Mating or playing? - 03/18/15 04:58 AM
Hey guys! My fiance and I brought our suggies home a week ago now on the 9th. We have one male lion faced suggy named MoMo, and one normal grey female named Suki. Now, they're both 13 weeks old now, as our breeder would not allow us to take them home until they were both 12 weeks old. We took them to the vet last thursday for a general wellness check up and to schedule a neutering for MoMo, but because of our work schedules had to put it off till the 24th. They'll be 14 weeks old at that point, so it is well possible that MoMo will be trying to breed with his sister at that point.
Now, my concern is that I've seen MoMo try to climb on top of Suki already, and I know its possible for them to be active as early as 12 weeks. His bald spot is barely visible and just looks like thinning of hair at this point, rather than a full on bald spot. Should I be concerned about this behavior and try to take off work and schedule a closer date for the operation, or am I over-reacting? I tried looking this topic up but couldn't really find any examples of suggies playing like this, so I'm very concerned hes trying to mate, and might have already succeeded during the night when we are both asleep :/
I really wish our breeder would have let us taken them home sooner, but I can understand her wanting to make sure they're good and ready. I just don't want to end up with first generation inbreeding if we can avoid it.
So any advice would be great! Thanks guys!
