Concretegurl - just curious why you prefer to wait until your girls have a couple of heat cycles... I'm having a debate about the wisdom of waiting until the dog is a little bigger vs the increased risk of mammary tumors if the dog has any heats. Also been told that once a dog goes into heat she begins marking and spaying after that doesn't solve the marking problem. Having lost a wonderful dog during the last of several annual surgeries to remove tumors, I don't want to go through that again. |
