Maggie gets spayed tomorrow

[Cincy'sMom]

It's hard coming out of anestesia, isn't it Maggie? Glad everything went well. I'm sure she will be pretty out of it tonight, a little bit tomorrow, and by Wednsday you will have a hard time keeping her and Smokey from playing!!

So glad you're home, dear Maggie They probably didn't discharge her before she at least pee'd, Liz. And she so's behind in fluids...I'm sure she'll go soon again. And after she's over the excitement of coming home, I'll bet she'll sleep hard and long Lots of healing hugs to you sweet Maggie!

Glad to hear Maggie's home, and surgery went well.
Sounds great--Jada wasn't allowed to even come home until the next day, so Maggie must be doing very well.

I'm sure in a day or so, you'll be wondering how to keep her settled

Gentle hugs for Maggie.

Maggie is doing MUCH better today. She's completely awake
and hungry. I did remove her bandadge as I think it must have
been stuck to her wound & seemed to bother her. She fought
me a little when I cut it off, so I think it was pulling on the site.

She's much more relaxed now & is laying down all stretched
out on the living room floor.

Maggie & I want to say thanks for the prayers & good wishes.

Dear Maggie, such good news from your Mom! We were all pulling for you little one........and we are glad to hear that you are feeling much better today!

[Albea]

Maggie dear, it's so good to know you're home and on your way to recovery.
Kisses to you, little girl.
Liz, if you see Maggie trying to get to her wound, use an old T-shirt, draw the sleeves through her back legs, the tail through the neck opening and secure the bottom around her. I did this one of the times Carina had surgery and it worked very well. Of course, she didn't think that a white, red and blue T-shirt was just her style, but it kept her from scratching.

[lizbud]

LOL Carina. Those colors are much too garish for your taste.

Alicia, thanks for the tip on a different use for tee shirts. Maggie
has just been sleeping a lot today, but when she's awake, she
looks pretty normal. Not wanting to play at all, but I keep telling
Smokey that thats a good thing. He doesn't understand, poor
baby.

When Maggie is awake, she does lick her belly a little bit, but
then settles down to sleep again.

[KYS]

So glad your safe at home.
That anesthia is nasty stuff.
Sheba and Rocky send get well wishes and that
you will be feeling much better in the next 24-48 hours.


Doggie hugs Sheba and Rocky

Keep an *eye* on Miz Maggie!

First Shepherd Casey (RB ) was secretly "UN-zippin" her
Zipper throughout her spay recovery period!

I'd catch her *werkin* on the Zipper and scold her to *QUIT DAT*!...

When we returned to the White Coat for him to remove the sutures...

Doc sez "Hmmmmm... there seem to be a few *MISSING*!"

Casey was apparently very skillful with her front teeth!
<snip> <snip> <pulllll> <spit> ... "Ahhhh, that feels better!"

Hi Liz and Maggie! Hope you're both feeling good this morning! I remember those first couple of days with Lilly and how worried I was, then she sprung back into action. Honey spent the night at the vet when she was spayed and you could never tell that anything had ever happened to her!

Hugs to all of you!

I don't know if I'm worrying about nothing, or if Maggie has
developed an bladder infection or something. She has stopped
eating altogether and hasn't "sprung back" at all. She goes out
to pee & ends up walking, then squatting 10 times or more all
over the yard. The vet tech I talked to says maybe she's just
marking her territory, as her female dog does the same thing.

Could be, but I don't think so, Maggie never did that before.
She still seems much to tired & sleepy most of the time, and this
not eating at all this moring makes me worry. I going to call the
vets office again today I think. I just don't know if this is normal
after this surgery. I sure don't like the way she's acting.
