Anway...so...is this what I need...and do I need to think of anything special given that she is 40lbs? --> {pain meds, neck-donut, chews to keep her busy...}
What else...I'm completely blanking here, like this is my first dog ever...oh my. |
We had a huge Golden Retriever that had to get spayed later in life because of health problems (don't know why Dad never got her spayed as a pup...) but anyways, she came out of it really great and didn't even need to wear a cone. We felt too bad to leave it on her, LOL, so we took it off her first night home and she tried licking her stitches once and we just told her "ah-ah" and she didn't try and mess with them much. Of course, keep a close eye on her, but it sounds like you've got everything you need. The pain meds plus the anesthesia should make her tired/groggy for the first couple days anyways. Good luck!
Have you let the boys meet her yet?! Considering they MAY very well have a big sister....
