You have a good memory, Ellie. Yes, it's for surgery. That's on Friday. She is very, very energetic since she's been on her diet and medication. This carrier is really small, not at all what she's used to. She also hates being away from mom and/or dad. The vet thought it would be better to make her drowsy during the flight so she didn't cause a disturbance. Do you think it would be better if I don't do that? I just don't know. I'm so freaked out about this. Really, if she wasn't sedated and we were on the plane and barked, what would they do? It's not like they could throw her out. |
Well, Benadryl isn't too bad but it still isn't great for the liver.
It really depends on what each dog can handle.
Anyway, I wouldn't count on it making her tired because I don't think the stuff phases Ellie.
