I know there are tons of different answers to this question but here goes...
What is the best age to spay?
Have read that it's best to wait for at least 1 heat cycle.
Have been told to wait til 18 mos.
Know some who have spayed as early as 8 weeks.
The only time I've had to make this decision was with Storm who was spayed at about 5 months. I don't know if something went wrong with her spay or if it was her age or what but after her spay she had a saggy belly for the rest of her life, no tuck at all even when she was at proper weight, looked like she had had several litters.
Obviously I don't want Chi to have a saggy belly (none of us women want a saggy anything
but I do want to have this surgery when it is best for her...
Thanks
