Lucy is in for her spaying....

She's been dropped off at the vets. I'm needlessly worried!

Good luck to Lucy and to you Paul. It's nerve wrecking, I had my last female spayed. Was near in tears the whole time.

I'm sure we would all worry at some point, I'm sure she will be fine Paul >< >< ><

She'll be fine! Just a bit dopy & whiney when you pick her up.

The worst bit will be trying to keep her quiet for a few days once the anaesthetic's worn off properly!

aw bless ya you will be she will be fine try not to worry i know its hard not too but she will be back with you soon

Hope she makes a speedy recovery and good luck keeping her quiet

I'm sure she will be fine >< try not to worry too much xxx

Thanks folks. It's walk time now so I'm extra fidgety!

It will be fine as, as Caryll said the worst bit is keeping them quiet after ><

So do you mean she'll be even more boisterous and noisy for a while after?!

You could still go for a walk on your own if you like

Hope she recovers quickly, and don't worry

Aww I was exactly the same, I was so close to tears when I had to leave Alfie at the vets! Lots of cuddles when she gets home

Any news yet?

Not at all, but whilst they are healing you have to be careful of the stitches, short lead walks and no bouncing around, no jumping, basically you have to keep them calm, which for a staff isn't easy. Its only for a week or so, it will fly by but its tough

She's back!

Awww bless, how is she doing. Moo doesn't handle anesthetic well

Ps, you could try the cone off, if she is sleepy she will leave the stitches alone for now as long as you can keep an eye on her it will make her more comfortable. Hugs from us ><

Look at that 'poor me' face! Hope she recovers quickly! Keeping them calm is um... a challenge.

Awww poor little girly! Extra cuddles today! Hows she doing? I would agree with janey with the cone x

Aw she has sleepy eyes. Glad she's ok fella

She's ok, a bit sleepy and clumsy. The vet has said to leave the cone on for 10 days!

Moo left her stitches alone and never had to wear it, they are all different though, but when you can keep an eye and she is sleepy definitely have it off Xx

Aww big hugs & snuggles all round, glad she home safe & sound

Aw glad it went well...give her a cuddle from me

Aww so glad it went well. I couldnt believe it when the vet told me to keep the cone on for 10 days! He adapted really well to it though. Hope shes ok

Glad she's home safe & well. Good luck keeping her quiet

She's livened up. Walking around bumping into things with her cone seems to be her current interest! She's had some biscuits, a couple of slices of ham and a bit of water. No doubt she'll be trying to chew my hands off again before long...

Ah that's great Paul. Glad to hear it


Especially the hand chewing bit.

I can relate to every one of these! Its all good fun lol

Aww glad it is over and she is home ><

Well Paul?

How is she today?

Moll never wore her head collar as they were internal stitches nothing poking out.

Good luck with keeping her quiet!!

Glad she is doing OK, we had a cone for Caley, but never used it, she wasn't bothered at all, although she was glued together, not sure if this makes a difference.

Yeah Lucy is glued, with dissolving stitches inside. The vet said though if she licks it or nibbles at it there's a high chance of infection, and she's kind of got used to the cone now, so it's staying on for the full stretch.

Plus, it looks really funny
