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
Ahh!! That is SO scary!!! He didn't tell me any of this. I will definitely look into other vets, then. Not sure how to find one that specializes on tinies and not just says they do....

And thank yoooou!!!
