Hi All. I am new to this forum and had some questions I hoped someone could answer. I had my 1 1/2 yr old Yorkie spayed last Friday. The vet ended up finding out that she was in heat after he cut her open, but complications have been at a minimum...until now! She is going (if you know what I mean) all over the house! I took her out for a late night walk tonight even, and the SECOND we got back into the house, she went #2! The vet had asked me to keep her on pee pads over the weekend to reduce her energy levels and keep her calm. Now, I'm starting to think that I just reversed all of my hard-working potty training. Is this a common side effect?

Also, my dog has never had any separation anxiety...until now! She cries so loud when I leave that the management in my building called me at work 45 mins after I left to tell me that the neighbors are complaining. I had to come home, get her, and drop her off with a friend. Does any of this sound normal? What should I do?

I waited as long as I could to get her spayed out of fear that it would change her personality, manners, etc. And now all of that is happening. Any/all comments are appreciated. Thanks!
