Mork is Getting Spayed Today

[joyce evans]

So glad to hear that Mork is out of surgery. I would ask your vet for his/her cell number. My Vet gave me hers after LCPD surgery and I used it. I would also put a onsie or sweater on your pup. I tried the cone and Hannah would not allow it. A onsie will also help keep her warm which I think is important right now.

Don't forget to take pain meds home.

All my girls were a little groggy for the first day or two, then snapped out of it and I couldn't hold them back. I hope Mork has it that easy too.

Thank you so much! I appreciate the prayers and your words of advice (here and on Mork's nursery page).

Thank you!! I don't know if she'll give me her cell phone number but, I guess, there is no harm in asking. As far as the cone, I know with Gizmo that the cone was a terrible option. When my parents put his cone on, he'd just freeze. He wouldn't even eat or take treats with it on. And, with Oreo, she figured out how to take it off. The one her Vet gave was tied on with ribbon. She would twist it around so that the bow was parallel to the ground, put the bow on the ground and step on the edge of the ribbon, lift up, and then push the untied cone off. So, I was thinking we might try Gizmo's old soft collar (or whatever that thing is called) and see if it fits. If it doesn't work, then I'll get a onsie.

Good for Mork! Glad she made it through successfully and hoping and praying she's going to do fine these next few days until she's absolutely recovered. And if she does have complications and your vet isn't reachable, locate the nearest ER vet to take her to during the hours your vet is closed. They will treat her if she has any problems but likely she'll do well.

I'm so glad Mork's surgery is behind her. I hope she heals quickly and is soon free from pain. She knows how much her mom loves her, and that will help her to recover quickly.

Mork is home and they've sent home tons of pain medications.

So glad Mork is home and safe. Lots of TLC and she should make it through okay in a day or so. By the weekend, she should be acting fairly normal but I wouldn't let her jump or run until the vet says it's okay.

I'm glad it went well. I remember when my little girl was spayed. I was so worried, but it turned out just fine. She didn't seem to need pain meds after the 4th day . I did use a soft cone on her for the first couple of days. I tried her without the cone and since she didn't bother the incision, I didn't put it back on.
So, here's good thoughts coming your way, hoping everything goes well for you and your baby.

Sweet dreams to little Mork; hope she has a good night, and feels better tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for your well wishes and your advice. I wanted to let everyone know that Mork slept through the night and today she wants to play. It looks like she will be ok!

Thank you! The Vet says that her internal stitches should heal in 10-14 days. She was going to go to obedience class on Monday and puppy play time on Sunday but I think she have to wait at least a week for obedience class and skip puppy play time this week.

Thank you so much! She did just fine! She wants to play today. She's wild this morning and it's going to be a chore keeping her from running and jumping.
