Oh, baby girl!! Oh beautiful Penny Lane! What a BIG day you've had! No wonder you were feeling so poorly, sweetie I adopted a Labbie girl at age 1 1/2...unspayed. Before her scheduled surgery, she was rushed to the vet's near death with a severe case of pyometira, infection of the uterus. I agree, unless you intend to breed, spaying is so important to assure good health!
Rest easy now, precious girl. You were such a brave patient! Before long, you'll be up on all 4's and feeling bright as a "penny!" Thanks to your angel of a Mom for her amazing love and devotion to her beautiful girl! Hugs and kisses to you sweet Penny Lane!
