| Spaying... Hi, I would like to spay my baby Chloe. I have a few questions. At what age did your baby get her first heat? How much did she weigh? If you spayed your dog, did she gain weight? Did she want more food? Did her personality change? (Aggression, anger, etc.) These are a few things I have heard from others. Please let me know.

| Princess was almost 8 months for her first heat. She is not spayed yet, I wasn't sure if I was going to breed her. My friends baby was the same age for her first heat. She had her spayed at a year old. She hasn't changed at all. She still a little love bug!

| We spayed my female at 6 months. She did gain about a lb but I dont know if that was because of the spaying or that she was still growing.

| Shelby was spayed last month at 6 months, she weighed 3lbs. She did fine (I didn't) and was back to herself after 36 hours. She is still growing but not gaining excess weight so far? Her appetite did pick up a bit for a couple of weeks. I am glad it is over with! If/when you have it done have extra teeth removed at the same time. I have heard (?) that having it done before first heat cuts down on risk of certain cancers b/c those hormones aren't released. I am curious about females that go through heat. Do they change physically with each heat? |

| Porscha was spayed just a week ago at a year old. She never went into heat, it took her a little longer to recover b/c she had a bunch of teeth pulled but she is fine now. I don't know about the weight I was wondering also, she weighs 3 pounds now but I don't think another pound would hurt her lol. She sure is acting the same though, chasing her tail and the cat!! |
