Thanks for sharing this. A vet I use to use had a tendency of answering questions with..."WEEELLLLL, I'M NOT QUITE SURE...BUT..." Got rid of him like a bad habit!
Sounds like you made a wise decision. Some breeders will always breed the smaller girls. Nothing you can do about that. It's just a shame that they haven't heeded warnings such as you have and it will take a catastrophy before their eyes will be opened.
Yuppers...you got him done right in time!
