She is such a great Mommy - it just comes so natural to her, but because of her bout with Eclampsia two weeks after she delivered (October 2007) we decided to have her fixed. Then, after reading all the horrible stories of dogs not making it through the surgery, we decided to hold back a bit and just keep her away from our male when she is in heat.

Then, her last heat (October 2008) she developed Pyometra (uterine infection) and we just can't put her through anymore. So, tomorrow is the big day, but we are just so darn nervous!! She is so much more than a dog to us, she really is a best friend. So, please, keep her in your thoughts tomorrow. Thanks YT!!

Missy just had her spay yesterday, so I COMPLETELY understand how you feel right now. We will be sending all of our prayers and positive thoughts your way that the surgery goes without a hitch and she has a speedy recovery.

Sending our best thoughts for your little girl Gellica. I know she will be so anxious to be home with you and the rest of the gang.

We've been home for about an hour now and she is still pretty out of it. She's sleeping right now. She drank some water, but her legs are still a bit shaky. She's shivering a bit but she doesn't seem to be cold, she has a blanket. The hardest part is having to keep her separated from the rest of the crew. I'm afraid they'll want to jump on her and try to wrestle - she loves to play like that. So, for now, she's getting alone time.

The vet didn't give her any pain medication. They don't like to because they say it could make them temporarily feel better and want to start jumping around.

Thank you all for your support! I'll let you all know how she is doing tomorrow.
