First heat can happen any time up to about 18 months (and even later in some breeds) so I wouldn't be at all concerned at this stage.

My lab had hers at 7 mths and the jack russell kept us all waiting until she was 11 months. I was worried about her too but boy did we know it when she finally did come into season!!!

My Inca, also cocker spaniel, is 14 months old and still hasn't had a season.

I'm certainly not concerned yet
