In my neck of the woods the fees seem very high. I may have to get a Vet from a smaller community that doesn't take advantage of city folk or have high rental costs etc. I convinced the lady I'm getting our pup from, to get the 2nd set of shots from her farm Vet. A Vets a Vet in these thing - I guess I might be able to get my brother [[Vet] to do the annual rabies and heart-worm [brothers aren't always helpful]. I'm thinking of spaying her in the new year - any thoughts on that? Some just don't if they aren't around males - wear pants for a while. But I don't want the hassle & my Mom has a male collie. It kind of frightens me about the spaying - although my dad told me its a very simple procedure - they want over $400 for it in my area. I remember paying about $50 - 30 years ago for my Dob. Nice inflation. Sorry to hear about Abby. Is there some way to know about this when they are pups? Could she take pain meds and keep her from jumping??

She weighs 1.8 and is 11 weeks old now. The Vet was very impressed at how socialized she is and said believe it or not he sees them at this age and they are already biting and growling. So that made me feel like a proud mommy! Abbey has done such a good job with her as her bio mom and breeder as she is very well balanced. And of course me, I have spent so much time just loving on her and playing with her and my grandkids have also helped so much. His office staff lady told me of a puppy they just lost - the lady who had the puppies let them go at 5 weeks old! Poor baby and she died of Parvo. She said Parvo is going around real strong in our area so keep her away from Pet stores and Pet parks - I knew that but some people might not. You do not want to take your puppy to these places until he/she has had all of their shots and if they are small and not real healthy I would say even longer! You would be surprised at how many people do not get their puppy their shots. I told Deanna most of this but I think it was in a private email if you are all reading it again - I am sure its still enjoyable! LOL Abbey also had her check up and he really feels strong that I should get her knees fixed as she has luxtating (sp) patella - she is bow legged but she can run fast and never seems to be in any pain. I am asking again for your advice, should I just take her to the surgeon and see what he says? I have heard that the surgery is often not successful and often has to be repeated and then they get arthritis. I was just wondering if any of you have had the surgery done and what was your outcome and would you do it again? I know the longer I put it off the outcome can be compromised so PLEASE if you have any opinions please share with me. XOXOXOX Nancy and her amazing girls
