I instead recommend what's called an Ovary-Sparing Spay or OSS. It removes the uterus, but not the ovaries -- so she can't have puppies, won't drip blood during heats but will still have them, will not impact her hormones and, as a cannot-understand-the-importance of benefit, she can't get pyometra. Unfortunately, like vasectomies, it can be difficult to find a vet willing to do this instead of pushing spays/castrations only.
Thanks for your answers.
I've heard of this before, but it makes me really uncomfortable. I love her body the way she is, so removing a body part of her seems cruel and unethical.
I need some comforting. Did one of your bitches have this surgery? How do you feel about it then?
I'll still consider it because it seems way better than a normal spay or castration.

Keep looking. There has to be an honest vet somewhere.
I will, it's just really stressful for me because I'm asking multiple vets really weird / suspicious questions since no single vet seems to do this surgery...
