I'm really proud of you for getting her spayed. It's a big step, but so good for your dog's health. Keep us updated.

I will and something HORRIBLE happend over the weekend that truly made me realize is NOT worth it. In the other forums i belong to there is a woman named Kimberly. Kim adopted a 3 year old female Boston Terrier who was bred to a Mutt and then given an abortion shot and then bred again to a reg Boston Terrier. When Kim got her the owners said she was rebred but NEVER looked pregnant other than her nipples getting bigger. Jill is the Boston's name, she never showed a belly untill last days of pregnancy which she grew a belly overnight, i mean wow her belly went from flat to looking pregnant completly. Vet did xrays on last days and she had 4 puppies. On 10/19/07 Jill went into labor in the afternoon, she had a tiny male puppy, second she had a big girl who was dead. All this time Kim trying to help her and Jill been really aggresive, Kim got bit and had to have 8 stitches on her arm. Anyways after second puppy born dead they headed for the vet. Kim updated us late night saying Jill had an emergency c section plus spay and only two puppies made it, first and third puppy. Second died at home and fourth was stuck. As Kim went home Jill tried to attack puppy number one. Kim did not know if Jill would make it because she had lost too much blood. On 10/22/07 the other two puppies passed away as well, leaving Kim with no puppies and a very sick Jill. Jill had a very high fever. Thanksfully today Jill is better, eating and drinking on her own. This story has teached me a big lesson, no matter how much you know nature can take a turn for the worse. Thanks everyone, from now on i will always use this story to prevent breeding, i dont know what i was thinking. I guess i needed to see a REAL story happen.
