My bitch keeps licking my dogs ears

My english mastiff bitch is having her first season..its been 3 weeks so far! She keeps on licking my boy dog ears. He is cross breed and much smaller. I think she is treating him like a puppy and washing him…am I right in thinking this? And will it stop with her season? He’s putting up with it ,but it is wearing thin with him

Answer #1

Females do things like lick the males ears and flirt etc when they are in heat. It is a form of love making while they are in this time. They play, jump, flirt, dance, dogs do all kinds of mating rituals when they are in season.

Answer #2

it will not stop her heat and she should be just about done with her heat, it last about 3 weeks. Also my male chihuahua will groom my female chihuahua, I see no reason to think there is a issue, unless his ears seem red or infected.

Answer #3

get his ears checked.
