I would have been furious! Last time I checked, 5 pounds was still within the breed standard. And even if Mickey grows bigger than 7 pounds, who the heck cares?! You love him the same either way!! What a horrible woman. Of course I recommend you neuter if you're yorkie isn't breeding material, but at the end of the day it's your own darn business what you do with your dog!

And I'm not a vet, but isn't 2 pounds too tiny to be spayed???

P.S. I grew up in South Jersey in Washington Township. What a small world!
