Who knows? Usually in dogs that have not had pups, they tuck back up real nice in about 3 months or so (after the beginning of a heat cycle).
And jaded, as your girl ages, each heat cycle she has drastically increases her risk of pyometra. I've done sooooo many emergency spays to remove a uterus that absolutely FULL of green pus that it makes me sick. And we've only saved 1 dog in the 5 years I've been doing this. By the time one notices that their bitch is ill & a vet diagnoses pyometra, it's usually too late to save her. I'd hate for you to lose your beloved pet at a not quite so old age.
