Then there was Elsy - she was just spayed 1 1/2 weeks ago. She came home the same day and it was terrible for her. She would lie down but then get right back up because she was hurting. She whined for about 24 hours. She had not eaten since 6:30 the night before her surgery and after 43 hours had gone buy and she still had not eaten (I gave her nutracal and fluids through a syringe though) I took her in to the vet. They ended up given her another pain shot and sub-q fluids and sending her home. They gave me fluids so I could give them sub-q if she needed them since it was the Memorial Day holiday but by nighttime she was so much better. She ate alittle and drank on her own. She is still not eating as well as I would like but she is eating and drinking. The vet told me that each dog is different and some cannot handle pain as well as others. This is the first time that I have ever had a problem like this after surgery.
Oh No, was the pain from her spaying or teeth or both? That would just break my heart if I heard her crying like that.. So, a week and a half out your baby is still not eating well? Oh boy this scares me.. Well I sure hope she starts to feel better soon. Thanks for your input.....and BIG HUGS to you both....
