Spay/spade
Yes, Jackie, they do say exactly that, and I gather it's not just a Baltimore locution. Of course, technically speaking they ought to be saying they are going to spade their bitch, since "dog" technically refers to a male, but the people who would say "spade" in this context either don't know that or don't want to use the word "bitch".
