Poacherspocket 189 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Just had my bitch spayed about 11 days ago and she is now off the lead and doesnt seem bothered in the slightest. She seems as keen as ever if not more keen due to the fact she's been lead bound. Quote Link to post

jukel123 6,859 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 How much does it cost on average, for a bitch to be spayed? Millet I'm reporting you to the RSPCA, no dog should ever have to sleep on a Liverpool blanket. 1 Quote Link to post
lifelong cumbrian 1,821 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Wont be any different mate work wise. As price goes the bigger the bitch the more expense, cost £120 for my terrier and £160 for my lurcher that is just 14kg. Goes on weight. Quote Link to post

johnny 2 367 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 spaying a bitch that can't add to the gene pool is not a bad idea. Quote Link to post
Poacherspocket 189 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 spaying a bitch that can't add to the gene pool is not a bad idea. Thats another Reason why iv had mine done because with her been a little bully id have every chav in the local area coming knocking if I bred her and id never want to let go of a single pup if I thought they were an idiot.
