Murphy and I will keep you and Tiger in our prayers Des. It is all going to work out great - I am a big believer of positive confessions.
When I had Murphy done at the yound age of 5 months old he was so sacked out afterwards. He did not even want to move at all. As long as you put him somewhere out of reach from Annika I think he will not even care about her being there. It will be afterwards you might have to keep thier rough play to a minimum. It was very sad but in a few days he was back to himself. From what I have heard the boys jump back pretty fast. Give Tiger some kisses from us and we will hear from you when he is back home safely.
