IMO, doing a medical procedure on a dog without proper training borders on cruelty, no matter one's background. It may seem simple, and may be to an experienced person, but to be walked through it on the phone just boggles my mind. I mean, it's not like this was a life or death issue and you were snowed in....and for what?....to save $38?
May not be a life or death situation, but could turn into one. I'm aware of a couple of people that I know on a personal level, that attempted to do this without proper instruction. Performed the procedure on premature pups that hadn't obtained the proper weight and lost pups. So, understanding that other factors figure into the equation is of improtance.
