Thank you for using our service. If you are concerned about your 1 month old female mixed breed puppy needing to be spayed, it is important to consult with a veterinarian for proper guidance. Spaying (ovariohysterectomy) is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the ovaries and uterus of a female animal, and it is typically recommended to prevent unwanted pregnancies and certain types of reproductive cancers.

At 1 month of age, it is generally not recommended to spay a puppy as they are still growing and developing, and the surgery could potentially impact their growth and development. It is typically recommended to wait until the puppy is at least 6 months old, or until they have reached a reasonable weight and size, before considering spaying.

However, it is important to note that the timing of spaying can vary depending on the breed and size of the puppy, as well as any underlying health conditions they may have. It is best to consult with a veterinarian for personalized recommendations based on the specific needs and health of your puppy.

If you have any additional questions, please don’t hesitate to come back to us! Thank you.
