spaying my 2 y/o dog, health risks still lowered?

dog health
moedenanotha asked:


my jrt mix is about 2 years and 2 months old and after much thinking, we’ve decided to spay her. i am sort of kicking myself in the butt for not doing this sooner! will her health risks still be lowered even if she is over 2? she has had 2 heat cycles (that i can remember), one should be coming anytime now.

also, we’ll be going to a vet that participates in a low cost spay/neuter program. do you think this will be okay? is the level of care the same as if i paid full price for our regular vet (pain meds, quality of surgery, etc)?

and sorry for so many questions but one more thing, (i’m sure this will sound silly, but…) will my dog really “know” what has happened to her? did your dogs ever get depressed after being fixed? just a little something i’ve been thinking about…

thanks all!

Leonardo
