Many people have thought like you, and five years later and a visiting 7 month male puppy impregnates their tiny, and they change their mind. They always say, "Oh we thought he was too young." If you go to a vet who specializes in toys, and he takes the proper blood tests, to ensure that there are no liver problems, spaying is very safe, and much safer than pregnancy. Don't forget a female dog can get pregnant her entire life, they never go through the "change" like humans do. So be extra careful and never leave your girl for even a few seconds unattended. Panties and diapers will not stop a male. Trust me, we've had too many horror stories posted here, and it's happened to people who had been so careful for years and years. I'd be so worried if I had an unspayed girl, and she would never be allowed outside without a leash on, even though we have a fensed yard.
