I did my girl when she was 6 months old, she weighed almost 4lbs - but I have a wonderful vet who I have trusted with all my animals for 25 years, but I was still nervous. But I was nervous with my big dog too - I am just a born worry wart - but Abbey did great. He gave her pain meds that she needed on day 2 that was the hardest day, but then she did fine. Nancy and her GIRLS!

The Vet said she wouldn't even think about spaying her until she was 3 pounds well she is 3.2 now and it just scares me she is so little. I have always had big dogs before. Do you suggest I not spay her and just keep diapers when she is in heat or go ahead and spay her that it is safe for tiny dogs once they are old enough? I know I seem a little crazy but she is my first one and I would hate for something to happen to her. Ellen ------------------------------------ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends!
