Those who have spayed girls How old was your pup when she had surgery and how much did she weigh? I will be asking my vet next visit what she recommends but i'm wondering if there is a certain weight that is more optimal, like for instance if Bella only weighs 2.5lbs at 6months would it be best to weight a bit to see if she gains and then have it done. I have had 3 large breed dogs spayed and never felt nearly as nervous about it as I do thinking about Bella and Chloe being done. *Chloe is a 19wk old Boston terrier who is tiny for the breed. |
My Stella was around 6 months old and weighed around 4 1/2 lbs. |
Meeka was fixed at about 5 1/2 months and was 2.2 pounds, she is only 2.5 pounds now so it was not like if I would have waited she would have gotten any bigger. |
Lily was 6 months and 2.5 lbs. I was concerned that she was too small, but the vet put me at ease and all went well, she was back to herself the next day. |
Izzy was 5 months at only weighed 2.3 ounces at the time - I truly trust my vet and he has the laser procedure which is less pain, etc., and he is well known in publications, etc., (he has done spaying on mice:eek: ), so I was not worried and Izzy was back to her old self the next day. </IMG> |
Chloe was b/w 10-11 months old and weigh around 6 to 6/5 lbs when she got spayed.....the surgery went really well and she went back to her normal self the next day! |
Jewels was 6 mos and 4 lbs |
Laney (my pit mix) was 4 months old and only 3 lbs. She was tiny at the time. All the other female dogs I've had done were larger breeds and done at 4 mnths, 8+ lbs. |
Dior was 6 months between 4 and 5 lbs. She did excellent and was her old self the next morning.:) |
Gracie was 6 mos 6lbs, and Katie was 6mos 3lbs. |
Penny will be 7 months and 5.2 pounds |
Gracie was 6 months and about 5 1/2 lbs. |
Autumn was 6 1/2 months when she was spayed and weighed 4.2lbs! |
Misha was 2.2 lbs at 4 months. I waited until all of Pipers teeth to come in before I had her done, so they could remove what baby teeth didn't fall out. Misha never lost her canines, so I had to bring her back in at 7 months to have them removed. Had I know not all small dogs loose all their teeth, I would have waited on Misha so she wouldn't have had to go under twice. The vet didn't tell me about this. So I paid for 2 full surgeries, plus taking the chance of her having 2 surgeries. Don't put them under twice if you don't have to. |
Roxie was spayed at 7 months and she weighed a little over 3lbs |
