Dogs spaying?

im getting my puppy spayed and im really scared for life long after effects and possibly death
is 6 1/2 months to early?
dont tell me to wait for her first period cuz thats unhealthy OK?
Answers:
What size dog is she?
The larger the dog, the longer you should wait. Larger dogs take longer to mature all around and if altered to early can have have orthopedic issues down the road and other problems that pro-altering at any age will not tell you.

6 months is PERFECT. Ideally you want to spay prior to the first heat.
Thank you for spaying your girl !
If you mean spraying like so it can't get pregnant and stuff then no that is not to early. I just got a new puppy and I'm thinking she was at like 4 weeks. Just ask your vet if its to young. Spraying a dog won't cause it any harm. I just had a white German shepherd for 12 years and she was sprayed.
No, this isnt to early. it is best to do it when they are young so they can be spayed before the Female first goes into season. and it can help with her health also. Did you know that when a Female goes into season the chances of breast cancer increases 20% every time she has a heat? im going to spay my puppy when she is 6 months. it can also help with walks. she wont run off much and she will be alot calmer.
What is spaying? Please tell me !! I just got a female puppy who is seven weeks old,
Good for you for getting her spayed. It is actually better for your dog's health to spay her. It helps protect against a bunch of things including cancer and having a bunch of puppies to take care of (a lot of money) and find homes for. If you have any more worries...feel free to say so.but it is the right thing to do for her health and to not add to the number of homeless animals out there (if she ended up pregnant).
no 6 1/2 months is ideal..and waiting for her first period isnt unhealthy fo her its just messy for the doctor...There really arent any life long effects that you will notice or ever have a problem with and they can do extra blood work on her if you ask to make sure she is helthy enough to go under...the chances of her dieing are slim to none so dont worry about. Kudos on getting her spayed though and good luck
Nope, now is the perfect time.. Best to get them spayed before they go into heat the first time..
Your vet will check out your dog, do a complete health exam before he does the spay, it's a simple procedure, no reason to worry.
Not at all, jeuvy neuters have been being done at 7 weeks for over 30 yrs. Best to get done b4 any heats, cuts cancer risk down to almost nil..
We have 3 dogs 2 are jack russell %26 min pinn the other little guy is a min pinn and we got them all 3 fixed and they are just as healthy %26 happy as before. We got our little girl fixed when she was almost 6 mos old befored she ever came into heat. The only thing is when they get fixed they tend to put on weight. I hope that helps you some. Our vet is the one that told us when was the best time to get them fixed
