Ooh that looks a bit tight, bless her!! Is she bigger than you thought then? :)

I hope she perks up soon, she does look sorry for herself!

:hug: xxx
Millie hasn't moved all evening, but just took her outside for a wee. She stood there a little wobbly but, no wee :(

But have rebuttoned her vest and it fits much better :D

Janet - hope Lolly is ok, I guess she's the same as Millie, completely washed out. :hug:
 
Hope both baby girls are ok ... Mable went into the vets for her check up afterwards without any problems. The first night she just lay there as your girls are doing and then I spent the next few days sat on a quilt with heron the floor she was just happy to sit/lie most of the time and she is normally a jumpy, springy, boundy dog, Infact I had a lead on her at times so that I knew I could stop her jumping if she was to try,she was quiet for about a week really, realy feel for you both it was an awful time ... hope its over soon and they are both back to normal x
 
Lolly is now wearing her pink vest. She managed to lift her head for some water and chicken and rice and even managed a little tail wag!

She's been outside and done a wee (at least I think she did. She squatted for a long time but it was dark so presuming she did one) but that little activity seemed to exhaust her and she has now been put to bed in her crate.

I'll make sure I take a picture of her in her vest tomorrow.

Just a quick update.

Millie is still tired, which I understand. she didn't want any food or water last night, but she has eaten her breakfast with gusto and had some water.

My only concern is that her girlie bits are bothering her (definitely not the operation wound). She diving at that, all jiggley like. I have noticed that they shaved that area too. On top of this, Millie hasn't been to the toilet since I got her home yesterday at 6pm :eek: I keep taking her outside, but no sign of wanting to go. I spoke to the vets and they said leave it until this afternoon, they didn't seem unduly concerned. Hmm, not sure about this :(:confused:
 
The shaving could be irritating her, I'd be concerned about not urinating though... now she's had a drink hopefully she'll go soon. At least the vet does nt seem unduly concerned, its a worrying time, hope she goes soon to put your mind at ease... thinking of you take care x
 
Lolly keeps being bothered by her girlie bits too - although I have caught her trying to nibble her scar through her vest. She is also scratching the area a fair bit. She's still quite out of sorts but as a blessing keeps going and getting in her bed in her crate :D something she very rarely did by herself before!
Lolly was sent home with a tin of special chicken and rice food. She ate a little last night and offered her her normal kibble this morning which she was horrified at (she kept knocking the bowl with her nose in disgust) so I gave her some more of the tinned stuff which she wolfed down. I hope she doesn't get too used to the wet tinned food as there's no way we'll be continuing with that :eek:
Lolly has done a couple of wee's last night and this morning and the most disgustingly runny, smelly poo this morning :eek:
She has a check up with the vets tomorrow morning.
 
I think that if Lolly is bothering her wound, I personally would put a collar on when I couldn't supervise her closely. I'm not convinced that the vest will completely stop her causing it problems. Bio yoghurt might help both girls to settle their tummies, as they have probably been given antibiotics?
Wish them both a speedy recovery. :hug:
 
Oh Julie and Janet, I do hope that the girls are feeling back to normal soon and the vet checks go well. Feeling quite relieved that Obi doesn't have to go through this but then I have no idea about male neutering yet :eek: but need to look in to sooner rather later.

My son toook James back to the vet tonight. Who checked out Millie's lack of toileting. They still didn't seem too concerned. They checked her bladder and bowel and said both were fine and not full.

I'm going to have to get the bio yogurt in tomorrow, this is bothering me. But I guess there could be an outside chance that she is going and I'm missing it :eek:

On the upside, Millie is quite perky :) I'll leave out a puppy pad tonight, just in case everything suddenly kicks into action !!!
 
My son toook James back to the vet tonight. !!!
Has Millie suddenly changed name and ***!! :p;)

I hope Millie manages to go soon. We've been taking Lolly out into the garden on her lead (as advised by the vet to ensure she doesn't get to lively and bouncy) so no chance we can miss it. She's done plenty of wee's today and eaten and drank well. She's beginning to feel like her old self again as well and even had a look at the stairs :eek:. I got nothing done in the house today (I didn't even bother to get dressed :eek:) as I was trying to watch Lolly as much as possible and keep the household calm. I'm thinking tomorrow will be much harder than today trying to keep Lolly from jumping on the furniture and going upstairs.

On the plus side she is still taking herself off to her crate by herself to get comfy and rest :D

LOL, oops, right old typo. How about son James took Millie to the vet :D

I've had to work on and off today, so couldn't keep a 100% eye on her.

Millie has ran up the stairs a couple of times and for the first time ever jumped onto our bed !! So much for keeping her calm :confused:
