When to spay?

[k9krazee]

Shadow, Micki and Jack were all spayed/neutered at very young ages. Shadow and Jack were done before we got them and Micki, well my mom was paranoid of having a male dog and wanted him neutered as soon as possible so he was done at about 10 weeks.

I would really get her spayed before her first heat, they are prone to a lot less behavoiral and medical problems. My Aunt's lab pup went into heat the first time at 13 months and she was pretty shocked, most of her labs usually went into heat right around six months.

I'm feeling a bit hypocritical though, Mini and Kyra are both intact, Mini will be four on Friday and Kyra is over a year. We did notice some behavoiral problems though, Mini used to be extremely submissive and now shes our most dominant dog but that was the only drastic change.

Alright, I'm getting her spayed before heat. I've made up my mind, most definetly. I can call work now to see if I can squeeze her in on Friday, but I might just wait until Monday since tomorrow is going to be so hectic.
