you don't need surgical scissors. you need a pair of childs blunt scissors to cut the cords with and you need a pair of hemostats to clamp the cord off before you cut it. my child's scissors didn't work very well tho. Also be careful of the blanketss. the puppiess can get hid under them and mom will be frantic searching for them. all I put in my box is a pish pad. i throw a hand towel in there three or four days ahead of time so i can tell when she goes to digging her little nest. i also don't use iodinee on the cords. some do and some don't. don't make it any harder on yourself than what you really need to. Good luck!!!!!!!!!!! |
