2nd and most importantly , i dont like the idea of ripping out body parts. i meen they have to be there for a reason. surgeries are risky with anesthesia and all. and the recovery seems pretty painful.
and for what? there is NO chance this dog can get pregnant. my other dog is neutered and shes not going to be kept outside or be allowed to roam free obviously.
consider the 2nd reason more than the 1st. because im really 99.9% sure im not going to breed her, im just thinking out loud.
Maybe you guys could do a pro/con list to spaying so that this doesnt turn into a screaming match lol |
Well, I wouldn't spay her based on what you have said but there are thousands of people on here that think it is almost a sin to have a dog unaltered and they will be sure to voice their opinion just as I have mine. your other dog is altered, you have no plans to breed but as you said, there MIGHT be a very small chance somewhere down the road and you feel that the surgery and anesthesia could be harmful. it could. Just as harmful as breeding could be so it's a matter of personal choice. yorkies bleed very little when they are in heat and usually keep themselves very clean so there is no mess to deal with.
