Stupid question

I kind of hate to say it, but unless there's reason to think the pups would be pretty special I'd go ahead with the spay either way. Greta was pregnant when I took her in (her previous owner kept her tied out in an unfenced area 24/7 and never got around to having her spayed - duh) and while I thought she was a pretty great dog I didn't think we'd be depriving the dog world much if the pups weren't born. Given the number of dogs killed for lack of homes it seemed better to euthanize the unborn pups. It was a pretty awful decision but, I think, the right one. -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |
