Is there a shot to get dogs to go out of heat?

I have a female that I have been working with for awhile now and she is starting to come in. I dont want the three weeks of down time and have heard something about a shot you can give them to get them to go out.

I'd call the vet and ask.

yes

but i would not use it

SHOT FOR HEAT

I DID THIS A FEW YEARS BACK AND IT COMPLETELY MESSED UP THE FEMALES HEAT CYCLE THOSE HORMONES WERE REALY SCREWED UP AND HASNT HAD A NORMAL HEAT CYCLE SINCE, IF YOUR PLANING ON USING HER TO REPRODUCE YA SOME PUPS LATER I WOULDNT DO ANY THING LIKE THAT THIS WAS JUST MY EXPERIENCE

I have been using Megase(megesterol acetate) since the late 80's. i have not had any problems and bred the females after years of using it and had normal size litters. It also didn't alter their cycle frequency. You can give Megase the day they start bleeding and three days later hunt them with males and they won't bother them, it knocks their cycle out! I have done this more than once.

Heat cycles

You have to get this from a vet. Progesterone. Within the first three days of your female coming in heat, you give her 1 1/2 cc four day's in a row. This will stop the heat cycle. My females came back in heat with no troubles at all. The cycle may change, such as early, but no problems at all. It will not work if you wait to long. I know most will not agree, but I'm just telling you that it works great for me and I learned this from a man in Georgia that hunts some of the top females in the country and he uses it.

Would it be safe to work her on some caged coons by herself. or should I just leave her in the pen till she goes out.
