My 7 yr old rescue was spayed a few months ago and I posted here about this too because my vet did keep her overnight and there was no one there. I was so upset when I realized this. Actually she even had more than spaying, she had 3 mammary tumors removed also. When I realized that no one planned on staying with her, I called the vet and asked if I had other options. The person I spoke to is a casual friend who attempted to reassure me and I ended up feeling stupid for worrying. Of course, later when i was at home and the vet was closed, I worried all night about her. She was fine but I will never leave my dogs alone again. For minor day to day things, I will continue with the vet that did the surgery, I like him and he is 5 minutes away from my house. However, for any surgery, I will go to a vet that has 24 hr care. |
