Dogs don't technically have "periods." They go into oestrus or heat, and often have a bloody vaginal discharge during this time, but this is not quite the same thing as menstruation. For one thing, it occurs before, rather than after, ovulation; ovulation in dogs occurs at the end of oestrus.

Dogs usually go into heat about twice a year starting between 6 and 24 months of age. Unlike some other species, domestic dogs have no particular "mating season" during which this happens; it can be at any time of year, though generally 6-7 months from the last occurence.

When do female chihuahuas stop giving off the scent that attracts male chihuahuas?

Female chihuahuas typically stop giving off the scent that attracts male chihuahuas after they complete their heat cycle, which lasts about 2 to 3 weeks. This cycle occurs approximately every six months, and the most attractive scent is usually strongest during the estrus phase, when they are fertile. Once the heat cycle ends, the scent diminishes, and they will not attract males until their next heat cycle.
