| Sorry to post here...medical help please... Well, Max is all of 6 months and he is 3.15#. He is in getting neutered as I type this. The Vet also decided that all the baby teeth that did not fall out on their own: he want's to pull now while he is already under. That way we won't have to put him under again. So this post it for two things please. Good thoughts that he does well....on both. And the second: I will stop to buy him a baby "one-sy" (sp) but what size do I get a 3# Yorkie? Thank you all for any help and good thoughts! |

Donating YT 11K Club Member | I hope he does well. I would get him a preemie sized one since he is so small.

| Good thoughts headed your way for a safe surgery for your baby I agree about the preemie sized onesie I saw some in WalMart, they came in a pack of 5 or 6. It's good to have a few so while they're being washed there's always a clean one or two for him to wear.

| I will pray that your little Max will be fine! Like "mizzwanned" said, a preemie should be fine. That's the size I buy for my Toto. Please update us when you hear from Max.

| Hope your baby does well with the surgery. As for the onesie, Walmart's preemie's should fit. Good luck. |

| What is onesie for? Can someone tell me if you used onesie for postsurgery use? Mochi is going for spraying day after tomorrow, and I am trying to make her a e-collar to avoid her from licking the wound. I have heard that you can use a doggie t-shirt, let them wear the t-shirt upside down (back legs go thru the sleeves instead of front legs). Have anyone used this method? If so, how did you avoid the t-shirt from sliding out and how did your baby pee?

Get the small or a premie size. Or you can get the small inflatable e-collar from petco.

| I'm sure he'll do just fine...my sons male was done at 5 1/2 mos. and was right at 3 lbs. We never bought any onesies for him or my little girl(they got fixed the same day)..My son just put the pups little pjs on him and he did fine.. |

| Zander was a week shy of 6 months when he was neutered, I didn't get him a shirt, he really didn't bother with the stitches. With Jazzie I did get her a preemie shirt, put it on her the normal way, but realized she didn't really need it. She didn't bother her stitches either. I had so much worry, before the surgeries.... yet they went about life like nothing. Pups are amazing!! very resilient.

| So far so good, He is sleeping of course. Max had 9 teeth taken out. 6 upper and 3 lower. He is not to steady on his feet. Just wants to be held. A big thank you!! The preemie size is perfect. So he is all covered and warm! |
