| Please pray I just dropped Baby off at the Vets for her spay, teeth cleaning and some teeth removal!! I cried when I left her and cried all the way home and am still crying!! Please pray for her as I am so scared, anxious, and sad!! I really didn't want to leave her!! I feel guilty because I did and when she awakes she is going to be in so much pain knowing I let it happen!!

| Ohhhh hang in there! She'll be fine-it's so hard, but remember that you're doing something that is better for her, and better for you as a pet owner. She needs those teeth out so that they don't cause problems later, and by spaying her (if you're not breeding her) you're reducing the risk of other medical issues later in her life. Keep your chin up, and know that I'm thinking of you and your little one. She'll do great, and you'll get to see her soon. I remember the day I had Emma spayed too, I was so nervous, and I felt so bad for leaving her there! I would not have made it through that day if it hadn't been for the support and kind words of YT'ers. Keep us posted when you hear from the vet on how she's doing. |

| Oh, another thing-you might want to pick up a few things before you go and pick her up to bring her home: Soft food because her mouth might hurt after the dental work A syringe to squirt water in her mouth-Emma wouldn't drink for awhile after her surgery A pack of baby onesies-I put these on Emma to keep her warm and prevent her from chewing her stitches, they worked WONDERS! You'll also want to get a little area ready for her when you bring her home. She'll be really groggy, but you'll want her to be in a nice, safe, comfy, warm place where she can recover. |

| Thank you Suzy!! I just wish I could be by her side so she won't be scared!! I am so glad to talk to someone who knows how I feel. The double rows of teeth are causing her gums to be inflamed and I know its a must!! She is 3 years old and I am not a breeder so I decided to do that as well. Since she would already be under! I just am so worried!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I was the same way....I remember it like it was yesterday - I started crying the minute I turned my back to leave.... they do much better than we think they will and I bet she'll be just fine once you bring her home....lots of TLC and nice quiet time and she'll be on the mend before you know it .....and just think of those sparkling teeth all in ONE row - that alone will feel so much better for her.... |

| Thanks Gina!! You were smart to ask your mom to do it! When I left there crying people in the lobby snickered at me and the staff looked at me like I was an idiot!! Leaving her there was very hard!!

| It's unforgettable!! Toto was 8 months ... had to wait for her to reach 2 lbs. and for her permanent teeth so the baby ones could be removed at the same time! She was soooo tiny .... her incision looked huge and we were just beside ourselves. She didn't leave my arms except to potty and drink for about 3 days! Trust me, she did much better than we did. Our only problem was trying to hold her back when she began to move around. She hardly paid any attention to her incision, which was a relief for us. She bounced back quicker than we did. I'm sure your little one will be fine ... just get ready for some quiet, quality cuddling.

| I also remember the worry and fret when having Maddie spayed. I made the appointment a couple of months in advance and the closer it got, the sicker I felt. Will they be calling you after the surgery? They called me and I felt so much relief knowing it was over and she was awake. If they don't call you, give them a call and see how things are going. Maddie sleeps with me, but after her surgery, I was afraid she would jump off the bed, so I made her a bed on the floor and slept there too in case she needed anything during the night. I'll say a prayer for your baby and I hope the time goes fast so you can have her back home before you know it. Hugs to you!

| Oh Connie thank you!! They said they would call at 11:30 when they were done and she was up!! I am so nervous!! I am going to brush her teeth and keep them clean so she doesn't have to do this again!! I have canceled this appointment and put it off for so long!! She is 3 years old and still with baby teeth. I was selfish and afraid!! I think I will make her a bed on the floor also. I don't want to take the chance of her jumping off. Even with the stairs I don't feel right about her trying to go down. Besides she'll come home groggy!!
