I am having her spayed (I'm not a breeder and won't try to be)

, but I'm waiting to spay her til she's about 5 or 6 months so we can see if her teeth need to be pulled. I don't take her out yet, except to go to the vet of course. I was just worrying about micro chipping early because like I mentioned ALOT of little dogs have gone missing in my neighborhood, last year someone who lives not too far from me had their house robbed and they stole her yorkie

. At least with the micro chip there's a slightly better chance of getting them back. If I decide to have it done soon though I will definitly speak to the vet about a topical anesthetic.
