Thanks for visiting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Dogs go into heat once every 6months on average. So she will likely go into heat again in March. However, if you are not planning on breeding Riley it is better for her health to get her spayed. It decreases her chances of developing mammary cancer later and also prevent her from having a spontaneous life threatening condition called pyometra. I hope that your fur baby does well. Take care! : )
