A female dog usually goes into heat anywhere from 4-8 months old. It's best to get them spayed before this happens.

Exactly Sablecollie ~ why risk an unwanted pregnancy ??? And I think there is a lower risk of complications if it is done before first heat.
Great to see another responsible dog owner concerned about their dogs health Tyson ! |

That said, it is still a significant reduction in risk over that of intact females. |
