Gizmo is getting neutered on Thursday.... My friend suggested the inflatable protective collar, has anyone used those? What kind of cones have you used? How long before they are back to normal. He's going in on Thursday and I am taking Friday off to stay with him. Everyone here at work thinks I'm crazy, but he's my baby and I feel bad for him having to stay home alone right after the surgery. |
I'm eager to hear what folks say about the back to normal aspect of neutering as I will be going through this soon. I think it is great you are taking time! |
I don't have the answers to your question, just want to say, get use to co-workers, friends & family thinking you're crazy for worrying about "A DOG" these are ppl who either never had a dog, or treat their dogs, like DOGS. I've been going through this for 30 + years.(and am sure all YT member have too) Only my closest friends and family understand, because, they too have babies they treat like skin kids. You stay home and cater to lil Gizmo, hope Gizmo re-coops quickly. |
The anesthesia left my Tibbe very whiny and he made this high, thin squeak whenever I moved or lifted him the night I brought him home, slept most of the time and he only ate the soft food I pushed bite at a time and left in his mouth. I gave him his pain medicine and watched him like a hawk but he seemed to be much better the next morning. I kept Tibbe from jumping or walking up his doggie steps for two or three days or even running for a few days after his neuter. He didn't need to wear any special e-type collars as he didn't try to lick himself but a couple of time and when I told him "no", he stopped. By the second day, he was eating, drinking and behaving pretty normally except he still slept a good deal that day. I think it was by the 5th day that he was allowed to resume all of his activities. |
