She'll come into heat at, or around 6 months but you never want to breed her until she is around a year, to a year and a half, old. The pups will be sub-standard and a have low survival rate. They will usually go into heat about twice a year.

Most female dogs have their first estrous cycle between 6 and 12 months, although some larger breeds delay until as late as 2 years.

Usually at about 4 to 6 months old. This is when a female will have her first heat. It is best not to breed it this young.
