My vet opted to have it fixed at 10 weeks, for two reasons. She was already close to 3 lbs so she was big for her age, and hers was pretty severe. My vet was afraid by the time we got her spayed her bladder and/or intestines would be caught in it because they were pretty big. I trusted her opinion and Sasha came out fine and has not had any other health problems *knock on wood.* I was also told not to breed her because those hernias can be passed down. We weren't planning on breeding her anyways though.
I was just wondering if you knew she had that condition...... mine has the same problem......how much did she cost ?
In this case I'm the breeder and don't know exactly what to do.Have it done , or reduce the price and how much...
When I ve said that everybody says she is sick.... which is not true!
