Love

My husband and I are considering rescheduling the spaying. So many people seem apprehensive when I ask. Her breeder does not breed "teacups" and told me to try to hold off until she is at least over two pounds.

mojo - Thanks! If we go through with it soon, that is the plan...

DvlshAngel985 - Yes, vet planned on doing all the blood tests before operation. Still costly, however, if we decide to wait.
And, yes, I know most reputable breeders wait until 12 weeks, but unfortunately I don't have the money that those breeders were asking for in the Miami area. I refuse to buy from puppy store (mills), street corner vendors (backyard breeding), nor through word of mouth. Shipping a puppy was not an option for us. So I found a breeder 6 hours away whose price was right and eventually went to interview and spend time with her in her house. I met mom and saw newborns from a distance since they were days old. Believe me I did my research, only by the time we learned my baby was so tiny, I was in love with her and could not wait for a new litter down the line. Thanks though for your input... You are right on!!

Imperez - My little one has very little fat reserves!!! She is too wild to store any fat on that little energetic body of hers!
