Thank you, the Vet
(a super Australian lady) confirmed that and said 'You'd be amazed how many sad times I know that we wouldn't probably be considering a termination if your little op had been done, when say a 7 year old dog comes in with either mammary, urinary or womb tumors. Very often it was because of the expense in the first place' and I feel so upset for everyone!
She added 'You've been brave, unselfish and very right - well done - don't worry, she's a super fit little dog, we'' look after her - promise'.
I'm glad its all over - she was microchipped, tows clipped and all her little 'meggies'
(Whoops UK anachronism for teeth were perfect)
So I felt justified in the small risk after all the great help and support here. I've had some super dogs in my lifetime and loved all of them, from a boy up. However this little thing and I have been in love from the first day we set eyes on each other! She was a rescue/re-homed dog, aged 5 months and smothered in wood-chippings and tangles. But such a funny quizzical little look and I could feel her character 10 yards away. We've never looked back since.
