If you take your puppies to 10 different vets you will get 10 different opinions. I have two male yorkies, both were neutered very early. My vet believes in pediatric spays and neuters and the patients seem to heal quicker when younger. (I manage the clinic and have for 11 years). Gizmo is a larger yorkie and he was neutered at 12 weeks. Don't know how much he weighed cause that has been 10 years ago. Barkley was neutered at around 5 months but only because of his weight. We wanted him to weigh at least 3 lbs and he finally made it. Please do pre-op bloodwork because it tells your vet a lot of important information that will help make the decision of whether or not surgery is warranted. Also we do not have our tiny patients come in NPO (no food or water) because of blood sugar lowering and because they are so small they metabolize their food much quicker. We just tell them to feed their normal breakfast and we have never had any problems. In the 11 years I have been there I have seen lots and lots of young puppies spayed and neutered. We have lost 1 puppy (a yorkie) during a neuter but after having an autopsy done he had a genetic heart defect that would have caused problems even if he had been older. Good luck. If you take all the precautions, everything will be ok. The hardest part will be keeping them still when you get them home.
