well from the information that i have been getting for the last few days it is
better for them to get spayed before the first heat . and the vet visit for
that is not over night it is from 8-5 .

I know 2 of the vets, here locally, charge $15.00 extra for spaying
during heat, because of the increased size of the blood vessels during heat,
that makes the surgery more work. I heard somewhere that it was better to get
them spayed before there 1st heat, is that true? I thought u had to wait till
after their 1st heat. My Penny turned 7 months old Apr 9 and I dread her being
at the vets overnight to get her spayed. Mom has some seperation anxiety
issues.....LOL

pain is a little worse if it is done while the dog is in heat.......May not be
anything to that, but to be safe, I would probably wait till she is out of
heat.....It does make sense though if you compare it to PMS....I mean who wants
to do ANYTHING during that time??? lol

I have a 8 mo old female chi . She started her first heat about 4 days
ago . I am going to take her to get spayed on wed . I was wondering if
I could get some opinions about getting her done . I have never had the
joy of having a chi . So I have never had to deal with the hole vet
thing . Thank you in advance .
