I must admit I was more than happy to have Lola spayed. I have no interest in breeding her nor do I want to deal with her being in heat. My primary concern, however, was to avoid cancer. I couldn't bare seeing my baby in pain When I was young my family's male chihuahua was adopted from the pound and neutered before we took him home. I'm not sure if I was just young but the process seemed fairly simple. There were no visible stitches, just an incision that we were told to keep dry for the next week...
