    Outstanding news!

    I know how relieved you are to have her back home with you! Extra snuggles and kisses tonight!

    Wonderful news Lexi! So glad she's at home resting now. I'd suggest (if at all possible) that you crate her to limit her movements and to allow her to heal, especially as she wants to follow you. When I'd had my last girl spayed I borrowed a soft sided crate and the first couple days she was in there if I couldn't be with her. I'm quite sure in no time she'll be running and playing!

    That is great news! So glad she's home and recovering. Piper's mom is right...do keep her quiet for a week or until the stitches come out, especially when you can't be around. And give your girl a pat for us.

    I am glad everything went OK. And I know she is glad to have you right next to her! She will heal up as good as new and she won't even remember this :)

    Lexi - so glad that everything went well :hugs

    That she shakes is because of the drug - she is freezing - so it's normal.

    Minnie would only lie completely up to me and I had to keep my arm around her
    she is usually certainly not a snuggle dog :wink2:
    so I sat all the first day with her in couch and when I moved so she wanted to go with me,
    so she came with me, whether it was the kitchen or the bathroom :yes:

    I can tell you that I felt like a real, real bad mom when I saw how bad she had, but on the other hand I was relieved.

    As you know, I do not use cages indoors - and certainly did not miss in this case.

    It is important - but hard that she can not play with her sister before the stitches are taken.
