| My parents' yorkie takes Rimadyl for arthritis. It makes her feel MUCH better. She's doing well on it. |

| Thanks to everyone... I will request the pre op blood work when we get to the office. There's no way they can do a bile acid test today though. They may make me come back another day and not do the spay if I request it at this point. I should have done this before now. I'll let you all know how she does.

Abby has NOT had a BAT, but they are doing pre op blood work on her, I signed for them to do it before the spay when I dropped her off. Whew! I was afraid they wouldn't spay her if I requested it be done today, but I worried about it for nothing. I also discussed at length with them about the Rimadyl and they assured me that if there was a problem, they would know before I picked her up because they are giving her a shot of it after her spay. They said long term it can be bad, but not for all dogs. They will send her home with 4 day of pain meds...I hope she won't need anymore than 1 or 2 days and I will not give her more than I think she needs. I'm just relieved that they are doing the blood work and they will call if there's a problem. One thing that concerned me was I asked if they could tell if she were in heat. I told them I had seen no signs of it at all. She looked at Abby and said it was questionable. She said she looked swollen. I told them that's the way she's always looked. So I wonder?? Anyway, she's there now. It was pitiful. Abby was shaking and wimpering When the lady took her from me, Abby was fighting to get back to me. It was so hard to leave. I kissed her and told her I'd be back in a little bit. I left her with her blankey that She, Daisy and I all slept with last night (hubby too) So hopefully that will comfort her when she's there. She said they'd keep it with her. I pick her up at 4. Keep her in your prayers PLEASE. Thanks again, Tammy

| Sorry about that. I thought you said that she had had a BAT. Giving an injection and not seeing a reaction right away doesn't mean much in my opinion. At this point though, I guess you have to trust your vet.

All I can do now is pray and hope that everything will be OK. Hopefully with the pre op work, that will cover the bases. I will be hyper vigilant watching her tonight and if I see anything the least bit off track, we'll go to the Emergency Vet. I'm writing their number on my calender and putting it in my cellphone before I pick Abby up at 4. That's all I can do now. Keep her in your thoughts...just good thoughts..no bad ones
