At what weight does he feel it would be safe to spay her? Maybe you need to look into other vets that have more experience with very tiny dogs that would feel the spay could be done safely. In order for a vet to be able to do the surgery they have to have instruments small enough and this might be one of his issues. What was is solution for the double teeth? Her teeth will begin to smell and rot if they are not removed leading to other issues. There have been others on the board who have had spays done on tinies.

The one thing that always concerns me when it comes to the very tiny ones like your baby is the chance they are ever lost or stolen. Without her being spayed she would be in danger if this were to ever happen. Whenever I hear of a lost Yorkie the first thing that comes to my mind is that I hope they are spayed/neutered No just never know what the future might hold and if it were me I would not be comfortable ever for fear of this possibility.

She sure is adorable
