2-3 weeks for the stitches is normal, at least down here. I had the last dog spayed, and was told to bring her back in 3 weeks, but she had them out way before then..
If you're going to go an older dog, I wouldn't go too old, my 5 year old hasn't been too good to the new one, even the 2 year old dog is ignoring her, although, I know in time he will be fine with her, the only one actually playing with her has been the 10 year old shih tzu, and thats only when she feels like playing..good luck... |
