Beth, that's interesting when you said " I did have a bit of regret as I was dropping her off.. Knowing I would never get puppies from her.. "
I felt the same way when I had Gigi spayed. I did actually entertain the idea of having one litter from her before I got her spayed, but then, the temptation left me when I felt guilty about having such a thought. She was a Back Yard Breeder and had already gone through so much, and what a hypocrite I would be, had I done that, since I advocate rescuing rather then buying. I guess it is a natural feeling, since they are our babies and we want them around for ever, even in their off spring. You and I did the right thing.... so no regrets...okay?

I was in line with about 20 other people with dogs. I am not sure how many they do in one day, but by the looks of it allot. I am sure there is more then one doctor preforming the surgeries. The Humane Soc. in San Bernardino is a new facility, very nice compared to what it was a few years ago. One thing they didn't do that the paper work said they would do is clip her nails. No biggy as I can do my dogs myself, although Dani I do need my boyfriend to hold her as she is a wiggle worm. Just glad it is over.. I did have a bit of regret as I was dropping her off. Knowing I would never get puppies from her.. --- On Thu, 1/27/11, maryjane turner <[email protected]> wrote: From: maryjane turner <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Dani's Surgery tomorrow To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, January 27, 2011, 10:59 AM and, Beth, I assume the vet at the Humane Society does many many spays and probably is the one who has the most experience. so glad all On Jan 27, 2011, at 10:32 AM, Beth Michl wrote: Hi Maryjane...

Dani did well yesterday.. I made it through too.. I have to addmit I cried when I had to hand her over.. Just something about handing them off.. When I picked her up she was happy to see me.. She was drool n on her self. I had her microchiped too. She was a bit restless last night so I gave her some of the pain meds that I paid extra for. The total for spaying and microchip $115.00 So not too bad. I am just happy she is okay...

I did ask for pain meds and I am glad I did as the second and third day she was uncomfortable - then it was like nothing happened at all. I also bought some baby food (meat) for her when she got home. Let us know how she is doing tomorrow.

I don't think she had to much pain and that is without any pain meds. They glued the incision and didn't give her a cone. The problem I had was that when I was a work or sleeping she would lick at it and it opened and had to be reglued many days later.

They said they would do it on Saturday and monitor her there. When I got back she was groggy from the pain meds but it really didn’t seem to phase her too much (2 days later). I had to take Desi to be neutered before 4 months…he had a genetic problem where one of his testicles was not attached to the kidney. The vet had to make several incisions to finally find where the testicle was floating freely inside. At the same time, the vet removed his dewclaws. Desi has never been a quite resting puppy…and he was running around the house even with his little paws hurting from having the dewclaws removed. I think that our little ones don’t feel as much pain as we humans do.

I have had two chihuahuas fixed. My female was groggy and just wanted to sleep for the next 24 hours. My male was, if anything, more energized than ever. I had to keep him crated sometimes because he would run around the house like it was a racetrack. Crazy. He was eating that night, no problem. My female looked at me as if to say, "How could you?" She didn't eat until the next day. Thank God for Nutrical. They both made full recoveries and are as healthy as ever. Good luck and Dani will definitely be in my prayers.

Dani is getting spayed tomorrow, and I always get nervous about any surgery on my babies. I drop her off at 7:30 am and pick her up by 4:30. Having it done at the SB Humane Soc. I am taking the day off, just cause I know I won't be able to think about work.. LOL.. Say a prayer for Dani!!! Beth, Smidgen Chassis & Danigirl..
