Gosh, I always feel so odd answering these kinds of questions cause I'm so dead set against breeding myself. I don't mean for others cause there are many good breeders out there who know the ins and outs and really truly are trying to breed and keep to the standard. But for me personally, no way no how would I ever breed any of our furkids, all I can do is tell you MY reasons why I have chose to get Lil Miss Maggy May spayed:
1. Her health is of utmost importance to me, I WILL NOT risk losing her during the birth of pups, she's just a tiny lil thing, even if she wasn't tiny, I still wouldn't breed her.
2. Pyometra, that one word alone send chills through me, we almost lost our cat Justice to this and I learned the hard way about getting none breeding females spayed so they don't ever get this horrible life threatening infection. Female dogs can get it to. if you're not sure what it is, do a search on it, you'll find all kinds of info on it and let me tell ya, it's HORRIBLE when you almost lose a very loved furchild to this. Once was enough for me!
3. There are way to many unwanted and unloved furkids in kill shelters wanting and needing love and a forever home so badly, I WILL NOT and TOTALLY REFUSE to bring ANY furchild into this world and have to worry if one of them are in one of those shelters waiting to be rescued. If any of my family or friends want a furchild, I'll gladly get in my car and drive them to a kill shelter so they can look into the eyes of those furbabies needing homes and wanting someone to love and that person love them back forever in return.
4. I don't have the slightest clue about breeding, but I do know many, many things can go wrong and I am not educated in this area and wouldn't know what to do.
These are my reasons. I'm sure others have many more reasons to spay, but these four reasons right here makes me know within my heart I will NEVER breed our furkids.
