You need to call and make an appointment with a veterinarian to have her spayed. If she has come into heat already, wait about 3 months afterwards to have this done. If she has not come into heat yet, schedule this asap. Make sure they offer blood work and an IV catheter with fluids for the procedure. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
