Hello,

I'm new to the yorkie world and recently brought home my first Yorkie whom is 8 months. I also have 2 Rottweilers. We decided to name her Gypsy. I am starting her on a raw diet (which my Rottweilers are also on). My question is: The people that had her didn't know if she had, had her first heat cycle (They had a ton of dogs). When do you spay your Yorkies? I know with Rottweilers it is highly recommended to wait till later on as spaying early (before 4 years) greatly increases the risk of Cancer...what about Yorkies?
