I totally understand where you are coming from and your are right to be concerned; however if you trust this vet and you have been going there for a while, then you should let him operate on tootsie. If you want you can request pain meds after the surgery; however I really don’t think that she will need it; my dog was tired but wasn’t crying from pain; plus the pain med being an NSAID it did damage her stomach; because I will give it to her first thing in the morning and sometimes she wont eat; so now she has gastritis; I really hoped that I never gave her the pain med. Anyway, I think it will be fine; nothing to worry about. This is routine surgery.
