gypsy waa bad but anastgetic lasted a long time with her. she wasnt right for a couple of days. the others were all fine.

once a bitch has has a season you must wait 3months before she can be spayed.

we were given no pain mex with any of ours, we just gave half an ibuprofin every 4or6 of hours i think.

Did you use an adult ibuprofen tablet?

yeah with all three nd will do the same with Delta

Keyhole would be great, poor Flo has a long 3-4 inch incision. They can be spayed before first heat - some are done as early as 8 weeks - or midway between first and second heat. In UK some vets won't spay before first season as they say the dog should mature properly, as was the case with Flo.

wow 8 weeks is way too young for any opperation not desined to save their life.

all my girls were done 5months or 6 months Delta is almost 7 months so we need to get her done soon want to book her in for this week.

Hi had coco spayed today almost wish i hadnt had it done ,she wont stop whining and is very uncomfortable .i think she desp wants to sleep but cant seem to lie down .anyone got ideas to help? She doesnt want to be cuddled

give her a wee half ibuprofin. have done it with all 4 or my girls. she will be fine, the anathetic might also be in her system, by tomorrow she should be a littl more herself.

poor girl let us know what happens.

 

[kendal]

aww girly. maby a full tummy will settle her, Delta had a bit of clipper rash didnt seem to be bothered about it.
hope she gets some rest tonight.

 

[kendal]

Is that clipper rash caused by the shaving when they are spayed or is it caused by grooming?

can happen during both.

 

[kendal]

they wont be taking her that short, just worn them that she takes a bad reaction, she wont be the first dog they have had who takes a reaction.

 

[kendal]

aww poor girl. Echos stitches were a little tite when she was done but the others were all fine.

its a very simple opperation, but you know your own dog and when somethings not right with them.

I am pleased to report that my baby has turned the corner.i think she reacted badly to the injection yesterday .i gave her a bit more piriton than i did the first time and she finally managed to sleep.shes been playing with her toys in the garden so fingers crossed . I feel so bad for putting her through that but i think in the long term its better for her

glad to hear things are looking up. is she eating ok?
