I have heard that there is an increased risk of cancer - ( I think maybe uterine cancer?) - if your female is not spayed. I would ask your vet their advice. I have a 10 year old collie that was never spayed either and the vet says that now at her age there would be no health benefit but I wouldn't want her to get pregnant either-yikes! But she's never had a pregnancy and at this point, I don't see any reason to put her thru the surgery. |
