I have a female 10 month old Lab/Beagle mix. She has been house trained since she was 4 months old, with no accidents. She went into her first heat about a week and a half ago, and the last 4 or 5 nights she has been peeing on the bedroom floor while we sleep. She never tries to wake us up to go outside, just does her business on the floor and we find it in the morning. Is this a normal behavior for a dog in heat? (I plan to get her spayed after she is out of heat and her body goes back to normal)

They can have different behaviors when in heat. This can be common. You need to either kennel her or if she leaves them on, diaper her.
The urine smells much stronger during this time. You might want to diaper her.
These lecturers on here kill me. There are many reasons a person has to get there dog spayed after a first heat. I had always planned on getting my pup spayedeven set the date TWICE but her frequent UTIs delayed the process. The vet and I decided the best bet for helping her UTI issue was to let her go through a cycle.
