Yes, getting her spayed is a scary thought. But the consequences of not getting her spayed are even more frightening. A female in heat can attract ANY size male dog. A heat cycle can be messy. Unplanned litters over run the animal shelters. Even with a planned litter you can't always be positive of the puppies going to a good home. She's a small girl who would most likely need a ceserean section to deliver- that's expensive! Unspayed females can develop certain cancers that the spayed females won't.
Will she have some pain after the spaying? Some, but only for a few days at most. More than likely after a day or two you will have to keep reminding her to slow down because she will feel just fine. |
