Spay incontinence is more common in large dogs than in small dogs, and this article says that it is better to spay BEFORE the first heat than after. We had our Bella spayed before her first heat, and she did not develop incontinence. |
Thanks for the link! I guess I will have a chat with my vet soon in preparation for it. She's only 5 mo right now. oh the dreaded scary surgery..
How old was Bella when she had her first heat? I've been told that Yorkies can get it any time between 6 to 18 months.
