I have a tiny male that I don't plan on breeding also. He's only 4 months old, but he's still 1 lb. 5 oz. I'm extremely nervous about the whole neutering thing. I've read so many horror stories about how people sent their healthy yorkie in for surgery, only to have them never wake up! That would be such a nightmare! I've started looking for a local vet who has worked on tiny yorkies or other tiny breeds. Haven't found oneyet. But my breeder is helping me look. If anyone has advice, I'm looking forward to it! BTW, we are in Buckley, WA and my baby is Joey. It's my first time posting.

Thanks!
