3 1/2 is not even close to too old for a spay. And beleive me the risks of cancer, pyometra are way way worse than the risks or surgery. I would always regret not getting my dog spayed and always blame myself if they got cancer or pyometra. We had two cases of pyometra in 2 days at our vet clinic last week!!!! And the risks of surgery are no where near the risks of this!!!!!! Just get it done , think about your dog, and what you will be preventing when you get her spayed!!!!! And weight gain, its owners fault when their fixed dogs gain weight. Even an unfixed dog can become obese. It is totally dependant on how much you feed and exercise them. All four of my dogs are neutered and not a single one gained weight from being fixed. Same for cats!
