But in 4 years there have been no accidents, in my neighbourhood they aren't many dogs that can cause and accident, and Rufus is spayed..
I was just wondering if it's a good idea to spay her just because she is 4 years old now..my vet said that it won't help against mammary glands tumors but it will make her stop going into heat (not that i mind the bleeding)..
And because my vet didn't tell me that there are going to be more benefits than only stop going into heat, made me wonder if I should spay her..
Every heat they have a chance of getting Pyometra which can kill a dog in 24 hours and as they get older the risk increases.
