Waffles went to vet for retest for Giardia, and exam. She weighs in at 7pds 9 oz now. Has lost 3 teeth! And has her appt to spay, and pull canines next week..

Im worried. Shes so little. I know there is never going to be a time i dont feel worried about it getting done though. Im very attatched to her. She has puppy canines and adult ones! So they will pull puppy ones. Also spoke to vet about sentinel pill. Shes had it last two months. Within 45 mins shes anxious, nipping at rear, crying, and pacing. Wont eat, play, sleep. Goes on for 8-10 hours. So after complaining to vet again today.. They decided she should try another type of pill. Is there one out there safe for her that handles heartworm, roundworm, whipworm, and fleas? Ok out the door to puppy class #2!!

oh poor little waffles, it is a lot for a little one to go through but i am sure she will be fine. i would definetly ask the vet about a different flea preventive .
sounds like she may have a allergic reaction.
i use revolution for my oscar which covers everything.
he does good with it.
i will keep your little in my prayers...

Waffles is really a big puppy for six months old, so as long as she isn't having any health issues, then spaying her would not be a problem.
My Jilli Ann is six months 1 week old and weighs three pounds 6 ounces, so I have cancelled her spay till she's about four pounds because I'm like you, I don't want to take a chance yet.

I just hope she doesn't have a heat cycle before she's spayed, so I'll probably have this done next month.
I've never given any of my dogs medication for fleas, ticks or other parasites or insects and they have never had fleas, ticks, worms or any of those things. I've always used natural foods that change their body chemistry so that insects don't like their smell, even though humans can't smell it of course, and I use natural sprays I make myself to keep insects off.
Here is a good site for that:
