I am very nervous because to me, she's soooo small (4 lbs & 6 months old) and I can't bear to think of the pain she's going to be in. The surgery is Wed. morning, I pick her up after work Wed. night, and if there's no complications, I can take her home. I will take the day off work Thursday and my boyfriend is taking Friday off to watch over her. I have a doggie cone she can wear over her head to prevent licking or pulling her stiches. My vet has performed this type of surgery on small dogs, it's his specialty.

I have looked over this site and I think I have armed myself with all the info I need, but if anyone wants to give me any advice on what I should expect, any signs I should look out for or any more questions I should ask for Layla's pre & post op care, please send them along. Anything you can think of, no matter how silly or small will be greatly appreciated. I had Rylie ( my 21 month old male Yorkie) neutered and he was running around the next day but everything tells me, it's going to be a longer recovery time for Layla Bean.

Thanks in advance!
