I assume she's never had a dental before? I'd get that done while she is out to avoid a second anesthesia later on.

Exactly, that is one reason why i am going to get her spayed. And mammary caner is another one that scares me too. I have heard if any dog gets pyometra it is a 50/50 chance while spaying little or no risks at all. (still scary though)

Wow discussing all this has been really comforting, just hope it sticks lol. I just joined yesterday on Yorkie Talk and i am hooked. I love this page.
Thank you
