I am not sure if this is the right place to post but I'll try. I recently rescued(36 hrs ago) a 6 yr old EM who happens to be in heat. I have a 17 week old male mutt who is getting way too excited. She has been gracious with her slight growls but he is not taking the hint. I never leave them unattended and she loves retreating to her cage to be left alone. She did get quite upset tonight when he approached her cage and warned much more aggressively than the slight growl it's been. She cannot be spayed right away because we are treating some underlying issues for the next two weeks. How can I make this work? I will never leave them unattended but keeping them completely separate will be tough to manage. Any suggestions? Thanks!
