Most of us recommend getting it done before the first heat because their chances of getting mammary cancer if done then is less than 1%. If you wait til after the first heat their chances go up to 8%, then anytime thereafter it is 26%. Most Yorkies are close to full grown by 6 months and do fine with anesthesia.
