Spay during c-section

Question
I have a 5 y/o Pembroke Welsh Corgi that had 7 pups by c-section 2 years ago. She did fine and is perfectly healthy and I am thinking of breeding her one more time, so she will probably have another c-section. What are the risks of spaying during a c-section? I want to avoid extra expense and anesthesia, but if the risks are too high, then I would schedule another surgery.

Answer
While a dog can be spayed during a c-section unless there is a problem with the uterus at that time it is not advisable. For one thing her milk will dry up very fast and you will have to bottle feed.

Another risk is that the vessels are so swollen at this time that it can be dangerous.
While it seems like a good time to do the spay, your dog will have a much harder recovery also.

Talk to your vet about it but I would wait until the puppies were weaned and her milk dried up before she is spayed. The dog and the vet will both have a much easier time of it then.
