That is an old wives tale about not being healthy by not having a litter. Actually it's better to have her not have a litter because some bitches can develop pyrometria by going into season and then end up having to be spayed and the possiblity of losing the bitch. It's always healthier to spay and not breed especially if the bitch is not the best of the breed representation and the cost of all the health testing involved and then if for some reason the bitch has to have a c-section and then she could develop eclampisa and then would have to hand raise the litter and then it's always the possiblity of losing the bitch and the litter. Is your friend willing to go through all this? You asked some very important questions for your friend and I hope she will listen to you 
Hope this helps in some way.

Thanks Donna, I appreciate your response. I have tried giving her every horror story I have read on here too. If anything to scare her! This same person said, oh she will only have one/two puppies due to her size
