I am not a breeder nor do I plan on breeding. Sadie is 3yrs old and Lillie is 14 months. Sadie just had a heat about 4 months ago. Her heats have been every 9 months so she really wasn't due for another 4 or 5 months. Lillie just came into her first heat. Could this push Sadie into an earlier heat?

I KNOW I should have had them spayed before they came in heat. I am planning on spaying them next month. I just hope that having them spayed after coming into heat doesn't increase their risk for cancer. I have been very nervous about having them done. Also, Sadie tends to be dog aggressive. would having her spayed help with this.

Thank you.
