I am getting my baby spayed next week. She weighs 4 lbs. Does anyone know what size onesie I should buy for her in case she bothers her stitches? I also didn't know they couldn't go up or down stairs for 5 days. Duncan didn't have any restrictions for stairs when he was neutered. Good thing I come on the forum
I am not looking forward to Elliot being spayed either. I arranged to have the next day off of work so I can watch her. |
Good idea on the time off, they need their mama.
Well look at it this way, there was the scalpel before the laser and that worked. Better that than not at all.....a lot of people like the cones too. Size depends on length of dog. Zoey was a tiny and had preemie size....Izzy is longer so she took infant , one size up...and it depends on the brand. Walmarts carters are real narrow , but the other brand they carry..ohhhh...ummmmm....?!??....was wider. Compare......get her used to it too...i haven't used mine yet.....
I'm going to have fun keeping Izzy down too....
