If you go to a Vet and tell them that you think she may be in heat, they should do a swab first and let you know one way or another. If she is in heat, you can not get her spayed, because that may cause her to hemorrhage. And no decent, good Vet would perform a spay on a dog in heat anyway.
They usually like to do the microchip when the dog is under, so you may have to wait on that too. Princess who is my Eskie had her microchip done when she was awake. It did hurt her for a second. But I was told by my Vet that they prefer to do the small dogs when they are under anesthesia, as the needle that they use is much larger in order to hold the chip, and it is a lot less painful for a small dog that way. I think it depends on the dogs weight and the amount of fatty tissue that the dog has on the back of his lower neck where the needle is inserted. -------Original Message------- From: greatful_n_happiness Date: 2/10/2011 1:38:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Okay, Sam Simon got back to me Now what do I do..
