| New member Hi everyone I signed up yesterday, I have two yorkies Freddie who is 19 months and Frankie who is 7 1/2 months also a lovely 7 year old dog I rescued from Cyprus called Molly. Frankie has 3 retained puppy teeth breeder tells me to just keep wiggling them, vet says they should come out. So seems to make sense to have him castrated at the same time what do you think is he old enough? He's a little fellow just 4lb 5oz |

| Hi and welcome to YT! It sounds like your vet has a good plan. He is a perfect age to get fixed. Please post pics when you can.

| Welcome, my vet did Cleo's spay, and pulled the retained baby tooth at the same time. She was 4.5 pounds at the time so if the vet thinks safe then better to do it at once. They also do the microchip at the same time so it's not as painful. |

| Yes, your vet should be able to neuter and remove the retained teeth at the same time. We would love to see pictures of your gang!
