I'm a wreck with nerves Chloe is being spayed right now at the vets and she is getting her puppy teeth pulled to. I just feel sick with worry after reading a post about another pup having a heart attack from being put under. I did have the pre-blood test done on her. I know I won't feel better until she's back in my arms. Then I have to keep the others away from her while she is recovering. I bought a few onesie and a kiss e collar for her. Any advise about how long I should keep them apart. |
Good luck, Im sure she will do fine but I am keeping her in my thoughts. |
Keep us posted! I totally understand ur nerves I'd be the exact same way! Hope everything goes fine and she pulls thru and it'll be like nothing ever happened :) |
My thoughts and prayers are with her. I feel horrible with I research an ailment that my Khloe has and the worst of the worst pops up. I know that you are worried about your baby, but try not to too much. I tend to worry myself into total exhaustion, to the point that my energy is burned up when my kids/dog needs me. Keep us posted and let us know how she is doing. |
I'd keep them separated until she acting totally back to normal, at least a week, maybe two. If they play hard together normally > two. You don't want her to be making any quick moves that may adversely affect her surgery. Definitely discuss this with your vet when you pick her up... Also, a quick wipe with a pet wipe to help get the hospital smell off her may help. Keeping you all in my prayers... |
I feel that way every time I have an animal spay or neutered. The chances of anything bad happening are very slim so try to relax |
I know how you feel I was the same with Brandi. I was a nervous wreck. When she got home she was very groggy and slept the first day. The second day she was moving around a lot more but still was a little unsteady. By the 3rd day, forget, I couldn't keep her still. I had to crate her and even then she wouldn't keep still. She was back to normal The only thing I couldn't do was give her a bath for like 10 days and boy did she need it so I just use some baby wipes until I was able to give her a bath. Hopefully your baby will be fine. |
Its hard after you read that post - but you did do the pre blood work - so I'm sure that everything will be fine. I know..............you won't feel better till you see her for yourself. |
Don't worry everything will be fine, I think such instances are rare, vets know what they are doing, just hope and wish for the best! Good luck! |
It's hard not to worry while they are away from you. But you've done all the right prep work ( picked your vet carefully, pre-op blood tests, anesthesia protocols, etc). If a dog is healthy, the odds of them having something go wrong like in the other post is very, very rare. But I'm like you; I don't relax until my babies are back home. |
So sorry you are feeling this way. I think we all go through this. Just try to keep busy and it will be over before you know it. I would just wait till she is actin like herself. |
Try not to worry! I dropped all three of mine off and didn't think about it until they called to say that they were ready to go home. It's out of our hands once we drop them off and losing control is always hard. I will never be afraid of medicine despite the risks because vets have saved my dogs lives and are important to their overall well being. Just be ready to take care of your little groggy one when it's time for her to come home :) |
Sending good thoughts your way. She'll be home back in your arms before you know it, giving you lots of puppy kisses! |
I read that post also and it started me worrying. My puppy is going to be neutered next month and I can't tell you how often I thought about canceling but I keep thinking how much better it will be for Zach. So I know how you feel. |
Mabel's going to be spayed on November 15, she will be six months. We had the blood work done also but I still can't help but be nervous. How old is your girl? Good luck and let us know how things go! |
Keeping positive thoughts foe a safe surgery. She should be done pretty soon. |
She's going to be just fine. Don't let your nerves get the best of you. Positive energy always!!:animal36 |
Chloe is 7 months old and she weight in today at exactly 5 lbs. I know my vet will have to remove a few puppy teeth I saw 2 still in the front. I just know she is just going to be miserable, plus she is also my hyper pup so keeping her calm while she heals might be a challenge. I have my portable pen all set up for her. My vet said I could call at 4:00 to see how she's doing so I have 20 long minutes to go. |
1 Attachment(s) I think we all fear surgery on our little ones. I felt the same way with Zoey was spayed a few months ago. She did just fine and I am sure your Chloe will do just as well. The vet put her in a onesie to take her home. I kept it on her for about 5 or 6 days (washing when needed) so she wouldn't lick. Here is a picture. |

I would not be happy if the teeth were not done at the same time. But the positive news is that she is doing great and can come home. Be sure to watch for loose stools. Zoey was up and at it the next day. Boy, they can recover very quickly - too bad we can't do the same. I wouldn't worry about the teeth right now. You can always get it done later as long as they don't change her bite. Cherie |
Chloe is home the poor little baby looks all doped up. My vet didn't take out any of her teeth he said she only has 4 back puppy molar teeth left and he said they would probability come out on their own. He did polish her teeth. I'm not to happy about this I wish he would have pulled them like I said I wanted. He said the EKG and all the blood tests came back perfect and that she was a healthy little girl. She resting now. |

That is very odd that the vet did not remove her pupper teeth. The best time to do it is when they are in for neuter/spay so they don't have to go under again later if the teeth don't come out on their own. You can encourage the teeth to come out by playing with safe tug of war rope toys or other chewing toys. :) |
Glad to hear all is well and she is home resting. |

What are they looking for when the blood work is done prior to neutering?:confused: |
I am so glad Chloe is home safe and sound. Those molars may still come out on there own. |
He been my vet for 30 years now and I do like him. He has always done a great job caring for my dogs. He cleaned and polish Chloe's teeth and said she had tartar on a few of the back teeth. He said he'd check them again in a few months but he thinks they will come out on their own. The rest of her adult teeth came except for the two front bottom teeth so he said she is still losing them. I just hope they do fall out on their own. |
I'm so glad that Chloe is home resting. She'll feel much better now that she's in her own home being loved and cared for by you. |
I'm glad your lil girl is home safe and sound.:) |
