If the dog is "chunky" enough that she is visibly pregnant, the puppies may be fairly developed. I was under the impression that the farther along the puppies/kittens are, the more dangerous a spay operation becomes. In that case, I could understand your friend not wanting to take the risk of losing the mother.
