Do Bitches Secrete After Being Spayed?

[peachybabe]

My 3 1/2 yr old staffy bitch has been spayed, but at certain times, dogs seem to take a great interest in her rear end. Sometimes even trying to mount her. She also cleans herself a lot around the same times. Can bitches still secrete something, even after spaying?

I don't know the answer to your question but me posting this will put your question on the 'latest posts' and you might then get a sensible answer.

Yes, as I have one, my male prefers her to bitches that are in season sometimes. She constantly gives off a scent, and had it not been essential to have her spayed for medical reasons, she wouldnt have been, one of the side effects the vet doesnt tell you about unfortunately.

If it is something that has only just started, it may be worth a vet visit to have a urine sample checked for infection as any kind of infection is attractive to males too.
