Lollypop Spayed today

peterluquer · 11-24-2009, 06:12 PM

Hard to believe Lollypop is 6 months old and we have had her 4 months already! She was spayed today. I dropped her off at 8 and picked her up at 1:30. The first 2 hours she slept, and while she is still very sleepy, she cries a little when she is awake. I have 4 pain killers to give her starting tomorrow morning with breakfast. If she is in pain this evening, would it be alright to give her a painkiller tonight? She has not had anything to eat since 8 o'clock last night and she is not supposed to have anything until breakfast tomorrow. Is whimpering normal? Breaks my heart to hear her cry in the slightest!

Poor Lollypop!! I am sure she is in pain. Hopefully tomorrow she will feel better. I was lucky with Mattie that the vet kept her over night after she got spayed. Even though it broke my heart to leave her. Sorry, I don't really know what is normal or not.

But I will tell Mattie to say a quick Hound prayer for Lollypop tonight so she will feel better tomorrow.

I'm sure neutering is a lot less painful than spaying. Rosco slept the first day and was back to climbing the furniture the next day. Hope your puppy feels better soon.

Thanks for your best wishes! She is much BETTER this a.m., but I fear she may be TOO active. I'm afraid she will hurt her staples. How much exercise can we allow her to have?

It has been a couple of years since Mattie got spayed but I would think Lollypop knows her limited on how much and what she can do. I wouldn't take her for walks or anything like that until her staples comes out. I would just let her play at her own speed and I would try to prevented her from jumping cause jumping could rip her staples out.
