Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 2 years and 7 months old
My dog is having her monthly period. She looks dizzy and sad most of the time, she also loves to sleep and lay down on the floor. Is it normal? How long it will lasts? How can I help her ease the pain? And should I be bothered by her low energy? (Her period is already 1 week)

Seasons in dogs are usually not related to low energy levels and lethargy. If you also noticed that Brava is drinking excessively and is off food you should take her to your vet to make sure that she doesn't have uterine infection. Regarding pain relief- we don't think that seasons are painful to dogs so we generally don't recommend pain killers for that.
