Oh that is just playing with fire. You do not know that she will never encounter a male while she is in heat. It happens all the time.
People come on here, my dog got out and now she is pregnant.
My friend came over with her un neutered male and I did not know my girl was in heat and they tied.
My neighbors 9, pound dog dug under the fence and tied with my 3 pound girl.
My neighbors dog tied through the fence with my girl. yes it can happen through the fence.
My dog was jumped by a male dog while we were out for a walk. I did not know she was in heat.
And the worst part is you do not know what kind of dog, or what diseases this dog might have, it is out of your control.
Why on earth would you not want to spay her?
