While I'm not a breeder, I also agree that it is not healthy. There may be studies to show it's fine, but how long has it really been done on a large scale? Early neuter can affect the growth of males and can't it cause urinary incontience in females? There is just not enough of a reason to do abdominal surgery on a 1.5 pound female! And the anesthesia for their size... Not comfortable with that at all. Baby teeth couldn't be pulled, so they will have to go under again. I personally would probably pass on a dog that was altered this early. I'd sooner pay a $1000 deposit...
