Like saying you have a yorkie that is 3 months and 2 lbs it may not be healthy enough to spay by 4 months. So maybe you could be given a grace period of a few months for that particular dog. |
Several studies have been conducted, if spay/nuetering ocurrs at too young an age it does affect the bone growth process.
The bill while it does appear to be directed at responsible ownership has much more of an impact on other areas.
