With all medications they have for pets I doubt they don't have hormone therapy also. I haven't searched for it because my pets are intact, but it would definitely be something worthwhile to look into. If I ever found myself in a situation concerning a pregnant 3 lb yorkie I would consult with my vet and make a decision based on the information provided about what would be best. If a free whelp/c section was advised I would do my best to place them in good homes or I would keep them. I can not say 100% what I would or would not do because I have never been in that particular situation. You feel the pros outweigh the cons...I feel they do not, or at least require further research. |
Not all people who smoke get cancer.........
