He was able to push on it and it did not seem to irritate her. The only concern I have is she is such an active dog - she LOVES to jump and leap over thing, thus why I am enrolling her in an agility course coming this summer.  I hope it will not affect the way she likes to do these things.
I guess I will just listen to the Doctor and keep an eye on her for now. If this seems to irritate her a few times more I may have to go ahead and get the surgery done on her. Thanks again everyone for thinking of little Mia!! |
good call mom and I'm sorry she has a hernia....So they said she'll be ok with it ?? do they give her anything for pain or is she feeling better ?? Sending you lots of smoochies from the Spy Girls Mia and I hope you feel better really soon....
Can hernia's go away on their own ?
