For any of you that have a very small yorkie & are concerned about having them spayed, I just wanted to say that Kodah did sooooo goooood. I kept putting this surgery off but knew we wanted to have her spayed. Our vet seemed to think that 7 to 8 months was a good time, so we waited until she was eight months old. She weighed in at 2.1 lbs. the morning of surgery, but my vet reassured me she would do fine. We also had her micro-chipped & four baby teeth pulled. I took her in at 7:15 & brought her home at 5:00. She ate some boiled chicken that evening & slept thru the night. The next day, you would swear that she was completely normal! I was shocked! Stormy, on the other hand who weighed in at 4.1 lbs & is 7 months old has layed around for three days!!! Kodah is eating her normal food, but Stormy holds out for the boiled chicken!
I just wanted to share this for those who have concerns, as did I! Now we just have to wait for the shaved belly to grow back!
