We'll have to see how her 1st heat goes and when it happens haha, honestly if it's terrible and sucks to manage everyone then I'm just gonna have it done as soon as I can after that.

It could be fine! I was really pleasantly surprised with how easy and low stress it was. Originally I was like "going to spay no later than 18 months! I might not even make it until the second heat!" and now I really don't have any concrete plans to spay.
ETA: I will say I think it's a lot harder the more dogs you have. I know people with males who will fight while the female is in heat, so you have to separate the female from the males, and the males from each other. Stuff like that. But with your crew I don't think you'll have any craziness like that.
