Thank you to everyone who sent their comments and experiences re short heat 
cycles.
I have received comments from 22 people so far.  Here is a summary:
13 said - had no trouble having litters when cycle is 3.5 to 4 months.
5  said - cycle became 6 mos after 1st litter.
1 said - by age 6.5 yrs cycle had become 6 mos; never got pregnant, 4 false 
pregnancies, gave Biotin to lengthen out cycles.
6 said -  bitch conceives every other cycle only.
1 said - had trouble conceiving, when finally did - reabsorbed fetuses at 4 
weeks, Vet put her on Cheque drops for 1 year.  Bred right after Cheque stopped 
- 9 pups.  Cycles became normal - no more problems.
1 said - uterus does not have time to rebuild itself in 3.5 - 4 mos cycles; 
ovaries not normal.
1 said - put on Cheque drops for 6 mos - bred after - no litter.
1 said - short cycles can happen when bitch has cystic ovaries - have to 
implant semen in order to conceive.

Thanks again,
Darlene
