The answer is yes, your puppy is too young, she isn't even old enough to go into her first heat yet, and probably hasn't had her first heat. There would be the same complications with a 13 year old having a baby, immaturity and inability to care for puppies, not knowing what to do and possible complications with delivery. Get her fixed NOW. Would 13 be too young to have a baby? The answer is yes, your puppy is too young, she isn’t even old enough to go into her first heat yet, and probably hasn’t had her first heat.

YES there can be complications. The proper age for a female to become pregnant is at 2 years. Your dog i still a baby. that's like A 14 year old girl having a baby. If your dog isn't too far along than get her spayed. if she is, than You should be in contact with your vet and schedule WEEKLY check ups. She might even have trouble finding her maternal instincts because she is young. Have someone who is experienced in canine birthing(vet) with you when your dog is delivering. That way you have someone who can help you if (god forbid) anything goes wrong. I’m guessing she is on her first heat?

And yes, there can be expensive complications with ANY pregnancy, young or old. Go to the vet, see if you can get her spayed so no more backyard puppies are born.
