A two pound dog can have surgery for both LS and spay with the correct anesthetic protocol although the only place I'd consider having it done is University of Tennessee or maybe Cornell. Of couse the bigger the better though and I would be very nervous about putting a two pounder under also.

The milk thing happens occasionally and some dogs who are having a false pregnancy even strain to develop their "puppies".

strain to develop their "puppies". what do you mean??

I'm sure she just have the shunt i have her in some medications also in a diet too but we get really nervous because not so long ago i was trying to get one of the boys neutered and i don't know waht happened the they called me from the vet really worried the he had die for a few seconds and thank god they brought him back alive..
