Hmmm, I really did not think UTI because she is not peeing more than normal or drinking a lot......
It has been a few weeks and I am noticing again that her vulva looks red and has been gradually getting darker the last couple of days, and today it is a deep red. I noticed a few weeks ago (and more recently) when I thought she was coming into heat that I could see and feel little bulbs for her nipples (though still not erupted--if that is the right term
)
So, maybe it is proving to be a split heat? Her breeder mentioned them as being common (so perhaps common for her lineage) and she is young and it will be a first heat. If it isn't a heat then I need to get her to the vet so let me know what you guys think! Should I hold out for a few days to see if she swells up and start bleeding more?

Scout is 6.5 months going on 7 months. I know there are pups from her daddy's side that have gone in at 7 months.
