The vet I use is a specialist in Small Breeds. I told her I want to spay Maggie. She said that needs to be done between 6 and 8 months. She said it depends on the health condition, weight, disposition, living condition, etc. that prompts when the heat cycle starts. Guess it's like humans, anywhere from 10 yrs. to 18 yrs.
