I had a small Maltese puppy that was 6 months old when she went into heat. She nearly died due to a uterine infection she contracted during her cycle. It does not happen every time a dog goes into heat but there is a chance. So I guess life in general has it's dangers. As you said we cannot life in fear. To me it is far better to relieve the pet of dealing with hormonal issues throughout it's life time than to make it suffer with an issue so easily taken care of. |
Yep, I totally agree with you. I think if an owner has done research and get a good vet, its a great thing to do for your pet. Especially for those of us who don't breed and yet the pet still has those hormones. It is a good thing to relieve them of these
