So true, they are babies themselves, even at an older age.   
Before Yorkies, I had mini Schnauzers, and my little girl Sachi  was scheduled to be spayed at 6 months but got pregnant at 5 months old, as her heat came early and I didn't know. I went ahead with the spay and aborted babies, and I was devastated and depressed for a long time over it.  She was so young and such a baby.        |
