Re: spaying - before or after first heat?
Our girl is 5 months old and everyone we have spoken to (vets, breeders etc) have said to wait until she is fully mature in both body & mind before having her spayed, and that may even mean a couple of seasons, we'll just see what happens when she has her first season.
I have also known people have their dogs spayed before a season with no problems, so I'd say go with what you feel is best for your individual dog |

Re: spaying - before or after first heat?
I know they say that smaller breeds mature a little faster than larger ones and often have a ealier session. I think it down to personal choice. But i know what you mean when you worry as they are so little.
