Wow - I am so impressed with how well Dora's surgery went! When I went to pick her up, she was shaking quite a bit, but as soon as she was with me, she stopped. She was just scared I guess. She has been alert, but VERY calm. Which is unusual for Dora LOL! She is finally having her first sleep since I picked her up 2 hrs ago. Her incision looks INCREDIBLE! I can't believe it! I have had several pets spayed in my life, and I have NEVER seen such a clean, small, straight, perfect looking incision before. The sutures are all internal, and I don't see any glue or anything. It actually looks like it's healed already, although I know it's not. It just looks that way. So my new vet gets
from me! Now, I also have to mention the price difference between my new (much better) and old vet. Dora had to have 8 teeth removed. At my old vet EACH tooth would have been $34 (times 8), her spay would have been $484, plus an exam $67, and the microchip $64. With 12% tax, that would be a grand total of $997...IF they didn't charge me for anything else. My new vet charged me $299 for everything. Spay (210), teeth removed (20 for the lot), and microchip (55). The meds that I insisted on, and they don't normally send home with them, were free! I can't say enough good things about this vet! I will be posting a positive review online and dropping off a gift at the office tomorrow.
Now for pics. Missy is thrilled to have her sister home. I had to move her bed next to the crate, because she will not leave Dora's side. Dora ate a bit of chicken, and she wanted me to hold her. So I took her for some fresh air on the back deck. It's so funny, she can't stop yawning. Dora's usually SO spunky. She looks pretty good hey? I'm really impressed with how well this all went. Thanks for letting me share.
