My bitch
 
I am supposed to take Pea-Pie to get spayed this morning but she seems sick. Coughing and gagging- maybe from the kennel last week. I don't think I will take her in and just call them, I don't want any complications or her coughing with stitches. I just want her to be healthy before going in.
Am I being unreasonable? Do you think I am just nervous and procrastinating? Kenny is sleeping and I don't want the vet to think I am a weirdo or get pissy for ruining their schedule.
Furthermore, has anyone spayed their dog before? I am worried for her. I have to get it done soon. Any tips to make her more comfortable? Do they give pain pills for them? |

She could have kennel cough if she was in for a day or more. Does the coughing sound almost human??

Re: My bitch
I have had 2 of my dogs spayed. They did very well and were back to normal in a day or two.

Re: My bitch
I called and they said it would be best to reschedule.
Kenny is up now and she hasn't coughed (ofcourse) so he thinks I am lying to get her out of it.  But I'm not. It's doesn't sound human it is like a snorting spasm that lasts until she catches her breath or gags.
She went thru heat at 8mos and it was really gross, I am definitely getting it done, it also reduces her risk of cancer later. But I just lover so much and am worried. I'll get it done next week prolly. |

No. Semi-housetrained rat is more like it.
That dog hasn't coughed once since I've been up. I think this story is BS because someone is worried.

Re: My bitch
I'm sure it won't be any worse than when you took Kenny in to get him fixed.

Re: My bitch
You did get a kennel cough treatment from the Vet before taking the dog to the kennel? (My kennel requires it.)
As for the spaying, I had the Malamute spayed last year, and she was normal two days later. (Bet your dog will be a lot less expensive since Vets charge by the pound for spaying.)

Hey, our Pomeranian has been doing that, too. Kind of like a snorting spasm until she catches her breath .. then she sort of tries to gag/cough up. Then she's ok. It's intermittent, not all of the time. I thought maybe she got into a dusty area because she likes to search out hidden areas in the house. (No dust in OUR house! ) If you find out what that's all about with yours, please post!
We had our 5lb'er spayed at about 10 months. We were worried, too, because she was hypoglycemic. I don't know if all very small dogs have hypoglycemic tendencies at that young age, or just Pomeranians. Either way, she came through the sugery just fine and was as feisty as ever by the same evening. Going through heat was very stressful for her (as it was for us!  ). Good luck!

Re: My bitch
Sounds like kennel cough to me. Good luck with the spaying. I'm sure she'll be fine

Re: My bitch
She hasn't coughed ALL day!!! She did get the Bordetella shot. It's required here at most places, too.
The little rat has been sleeping getting ready for an evening of bothering the humans.

Re: My bitch
She had the Kennel cough shot (Bordatella) the same day we brought her there. It normally isn't allowed and should be administered 48 hours before a stay but my sister is the manager there so it was okay. But there must be a reason.
I think she is sleeping because she is sick. |

I didn't even notice!! I'm going to have to do some padding when I get to 665!
Poor little Pea-Pie ... ( ) knocking on h2co-pilots door. Pea-Pie better lay low if she knows what's good for her!
