Where exactly is a scar on a female dog that is neutered?

I purchased a female adult begal a few months ago and was wondering if she could be neutered. She has not come into heat and people who sold her to me said she was not. Most say there will be a scar on her belly if she is. I looked and have noticed that her hair splits perfectly from under rib cage to her female organ, but it doesnt feel lumpy , just looks like her hair parts naturally. Any ideas??? ( I did take her to the vet a few weeks ago but it totally slipped my mind!)

The scar will be on the lower part of it's belly. I had my dog neutered when she was 7 months old, she's 9years old now and you can't see any scarring, adult dogs tend to come into season every 6 months, so just give it a bit more time to see if she comes into heat. The vet should be able to tell you if your still unsure, hope this helps.

Where exactly is a scar on a female dog that is neutered?

the scar will be on her belly - female dogs usually come into heat once every 6 months on average but can be a little more or less. If it healed nicely you won't be able to feel it - our sheltie's site heald very nice - you can't even feel it - if you part the fur tho there should be a scar line. try waiting a little more - how old is she anyways? if she's still just a pup - it may take longer - they can start as early as 6 months of age to 18 months.

Where exactly is a scar on a female dog that is neutered?

You may not be able to tell depending on how long ago she had the procedure. For best results (home) you may have to clip or shave her tummy to see. You are looking for a scar that will be located right around where her belly button would be if she had one. It will run from sternum to genitalia (though not that long. Most are about 6-7 inches long) Some vets are now marking spayed females with a dot tattoo while they are under anesthesia. A vet can do an xray or ultrasound to prove one way or the other.

I would be prone to believe the previous owners did not have her spayed if they told you that. Most female dogs only come into heat 2-3 times a year.

To be sure, talk to your vet.
