Your welcome...I went to the same vet for over 30 years, until he retired...I know there is always new and informative information about subjects such as this, but I think there is much to say about old fashioned wisdom, and this vet always maintained it was better for the female to go through one heat cycle...I'm not looking forward to the "mess", and not being able to walk her for 3 weeks, but I think, in the long run, I will have made the right decision for my girl...And that's what it's all about, doing what you think is best for your baby based on the information you have...
