I had no intention to breed, they were spayed before first heat about 6 mos. old. One died at age 13 y/o she was on heart meds. died from kidney failure, my 2nd spayed girl I had to put down this past Oct. at the age of 16 y/o she had cushings & pancreatitis. The cushings was under controll it was the pancreatitis she had to be put down for. So I know the pros & cons of spaying and not spaying. I advise to spay if not going to breed, I believe in spaying and neutering. But it is up to the pups owner to decide what they want to do. So many have gotten on this thread about someone wanting advise about heat panties, and you have taken it to another topic. Like I posted..YOU ARE BEATING A DEAD HORSE HERE. Just give it up, you have offered a wealth of knowledge on this thread about benefits of spaying. So please, just let it be, and let it be a THREAD for the heat panties. Thank you

This also turns threads in different directions and usually brings drama. Unless your a moderator it's not your job to tell people what they can and can not post.
