can i spay her now - Page 1

wondering if i can spay around august which she will be 15mos of age and last time she had her heating was on month of March which is 10mos.

last may month she showed false pregnancy but now no more and back where she was.

should i spay her around august before she gets second heating.......

will this be fine.

I would wait till shes 2 years or so old ,still growing best, around that age .

2 yrs plus

Yes, 2 years minimum.

would it matter for trial whether she is spayed or not?

For show yes.  For working it would not.

Keeping a female intact has no developmental privilages to the female, especially because this female has already had hormonal problems with her heat cycle.  I would recommend spaying her as soon as possibly (before her next heat cycle)  She is at a higher risk for pyometra (infection of the euterus, possibly fatal) and further false pregnancy.  It will be better for her to be spayed.

I agree with Olga Ashley - if you are seriously considering having her spayed, do it now. Spaying whilst still young also reduces the incidences of mammary tumours.

I dont understand why you would not be discussing this with your vet.

If your girl is already showing reproductive issues like you've described, then she needs a vet exam first and foremost.
Spaying too early (before she is mature) will lock her into a perpetual puppy state (won't properly develop full characteristics and etc if spayed too young). You say your girl is 15 mos old so that shouldn't be a factor to you to worry about. If she's been through 1-2 heat cycles, then she should be adequately mature. I never recommend spaying before the first heat. Is she a pet/companion, or are we dealing with a competition dog?
If you're going to spay her, you should be ok to spay her at this age; I don't really understand why people here are suggesting you wait until she's 2 and thus maybe go through another bout of this that you've done described unless your girl is a show dog or something. You might wanna ask prior to scheduling surgery that you'd like to know the condition of the uterus post-op (if there were any abnormalities, growths, etc in the uterus-if you don't ask prior to surgery, then they might throw it away and you won't get a chance to know anything about the condition of her uterus). If they tell you she had tumors or issues, then a course of antibiotics would be good.
One friend of mine had her 15 mos old GSD female spayed because she would come into heat, go out, come back in 2 mos later, go back out, etc. Post-op spay surgery showed the female's uterus was full of black tarry stuff and benign tumors, so she was put on an antibiotic post-spaying to make sure no infection caused problems for the female. It was a WISE move to spay her and get that mess out. She never had health problems from it and is still fine.
Best wishes with your situation.
