I'm glad you decided to spay her.
I lived in fear of not only the risk of having both an unaltered male and female here, until I felt my female was old enough but terrified she would get out and especially NOT being altered be kept by someone who would turn my baby into a breeding machine.
The health risk of having an unaltered female are quite severe-although I differ in opinion of others on the timing of spay for females of certain breeds. I do NOT however differ in the belief that unless there is a medical reasoning for not-all pets should be spayed and neutered it's just the responsible thing to do for their health in so many ways.
Remember to do your prespay labs to ensure her safety during the procedure and I high recommend the soft cone (kiss-e cone) from hot rod's mom on here they are a must have item to have on hand and especially to have for a procedure like a spay!
