Heats, in my experience, are different for each dog.
I had a dog that before she was fixed, had heats that
lasted 28 days! When our male dog was interested, but
we weren't interested in breeding them, the vet
suggested that we give him a cold shower to take his
mind off of what was happening. It really worked as
he was one that would cry, refuse food, refuse to
sleep among other things, and it lasted for the
majority of 28 days! If he got a cold shower, he was
more concerned with being wet than what was going on
with her.
