I was also just thinking of getting my dog spayed. She just turned three, I was not going to get her spayed, and I'm for sure never going to breed her. Is it alright to spay a three year old ? Is there any health problems spaying a dog at three years of age ? I have just been reading the chances of an unspayed dog getting cancer in the mammory glands if she is not spayed and not being bred. I would die if anything ever happened to her so I don't want to take any chances. I think I will call my vet and talk to her about it :0) But I still would like to hear what you think
