Trixie is scheduled to be spayed (and have a baby tooth removed) on Monday and I am thinking about cancelling the appointment.
I am so upset at the thought of her going in for surgery that is not necessary or life-saving. I have been crying for the past two nights just thinking about it. What if something happens to her during the surgery. How can I drop her off to be operated on when she trusts me and doesn't know what is going on....she will be in pain afterwards and has to stay overnight. How can I leave her in pain and all alone in a cage.....sigh. (She sleeps with me everynight in our bed)
I understand the reasoning for
spaying her and I don't want her to have a litter and I want to honor what I told the breeder about having her spayed, but I feel so guilty and heartbroken thinking about her trusting me and my just leaving her there and hurting afterwards. She won't be able to understand what is happening to her and I am worried she will be afraid. I just love her such a whole bunch...it's killing me thinking about it.
I cannnot be the only one who suffered thinking about
spaying their precious pup......please share your advice on how you coped and convince me not to cancel her appointment. I know this may sound silly to some, but please help.
