Question:
Answers:
Female dogs should have a first heat between 4-6 months old. My female had hers at 9 months.
If you are not going to breed her then get her fixed. This will decrease the possiblity of ovarian, uterine, or mammary cancer in the future.

I don't think it's carved in stone. I know a lab that didn't get her first heat (not period) until she was well over 1 year. and there is sometimes a seasonal timing. very often dogs come into heat at the very end of the winter.
as far as your question goes, anywhere between 6 months and maybe 14. best to have her spayed at 6 months. it will save you a lot of trouble later.
will it is cald heat and about 1 year old
this is a tricky question...
some dogs can come in heat at an early age of 8 months but if that happens DO NOT let your dog breed at any cost.
this can have be bad for the heath of your dog even death.
the proper age is anytime after 1 year of age.
Usaully a dog gets their first "heat" anywhere between 6-9 months.
Usually female puppies will get their first heat cycle between 6-12 months, although some puppies could get it as early as 4-5 months for small breed dogs while others may not get it until they are well over a year. The average female dog will also go into heat about every 6 months although some can be closer to every 4 months and others once a year.
I assume you are referring to her "heat cycle"..the same time frame as any dog
