My vet usually keeps spays/neuters over night, but I've been going to her for a long time and she is confident in the care my dogs get, so I bring mine home the same day. There is no one there over night. My dogs have never had a problem. There is an emergency vet I could get to if there was a problem. I did let my little rescue Chihuahua stay over night. It was a whole different situation with her. She was so scared and new to me, so I couldn't offer her any comfort at that point. She was better off being sedated and just sleeping all night. I didn't sleep that night and worried and worried about her. She did fine and I was there when they opened the next morning to bring her home. My vet went back to the office to check on her very late that night, after midnight, which was sweet of her. She knew how worried I was and she wanted to be sure my little one was OK. I have a great vet who really cares about the animals. |
