You do have to be very careful if you take them outside and protect her from any whole males in the neighborhood.
Yorkies do tend to retain teeth more often than other breeds for some reason. |
Hi Gracie, I've been doing more reading and decided to hold off until 6 months for the spaying and juvenile teeth extraction. Bella weighed 3 pounds at 12 weeks, and she looks like she's continuing to grow and thrive as a healthy puppy. Is there any reason to hold off longer than 6 months? I definitely don't want her to go into heat before she is spayed...
