    This is such a great vlog for dog spaying answers! My Weimaraner got spayed 2 days ago ( I’m like you I counted surgery day as Day 1). Ugh I am so ready to be at Day 10 and in the clear at Day 14 lol. You showed the real side of it all in your vlog. Thanks for sharing! 🐾🐾. P.S. dogs with long snouts need the cone shaped collar. They can easily get to their stitches with the cute round donut ones 🍩. I wanted the cute shaped one but after seeing that it’s pointless for the long snout dogs … I just saved my coins. I have 2 other dogs and it’s really difficult with all three wanting to be outside together. I figured it out though. The colllar can’t fit through the doggie door so the other two use that and when they come in the one with the ‘cone of shame’ waits for me to open the slider door! 🐾🐾

    The onsie had been the best route for us. The first few nights, we did have Buddy sleep in his cone only. By night 3, I had him in the onsie and cone but took the cone off during the day because he was miserable. Right now, he is 9 days post op and is strictly onsie inside the house. My anxiety levels have been through the roof because he was jumping on the sofa a day after surgery, and he has had more zoomies than ever before lol. I constantly check his incision, and everything looks great and is crusting up well.

This is the 2nd video I have watched, the 1st being your video collecting her, and I think maybe you are my FAVOURITE doggie Mummy. You are so SMART, CARING and LOVING. I love your videos so much, as I no longer have any dogs. I am nearly 75yo, and I have had dogs most of my life from 13yo onwards, but decided that when my last dog passed away(31st March, 2019), that it was not fair to get another one, due to my age. Us doggie lovers worry about their future. I have to say that it does amaze me that you do not have more subscribers, as you are so lucid, informative, ultra kind and fun loving. Your videos are in no way boring, and as for your doggie voice, well that is so cute, and certainly NOT ANNOYING. So there, my rant is over, haha!! Thank you, once again for sharing, and please take care of yourself and your "loved ones", cheers.

Definitely buy a suit if you know your pup will hate the cone, my girl didn’t try to get at her stitches at all but the suit was much easier for her to deal with. She also is very active so we did get some trazodone so she wouldn’t get too crazy and rip her stitches. When we brought her home we tried to pick her up but she jumped out on her own and was okay.

    My beagle puppy just got neutered on Thursday. When he got out of surgery he was so out of it and just slept the rest of the day. The next day he was back to his old (young) self. I have tried everything to replace the cone the vet gave him. A baby onesie (he got out of it), inflatable collar (he was able to chew the velcro), and dog onesie (he was really sad and depressed in it and didn't want to move, even though it fit him well). Honestly, the cone so far has been the best thing for him. We don't put it on him unless we can't watch him or at night when we're asleep. So far he hasn't really been bothered by this whole procedure.

    Honestly after her spay, my dog was back to her normal self by day 3 post-op and I couldn’t stop her from running or jumping. She ripped off the cone by day 3 too - she’d never tolerate one of those jumpsuits either! Thankfully, she’s healed okay with her oral antibiotics and I’ve been cleaning and applying antibiotic ointment twice daily. Can’t stop her from licking everything off though. It was super red and irritated from the stitches initially but then the redness calmed down after the stitches were removed by day 10.

    Just came across this video. Our vet recommended getting it as early as 6 months - she just turned 8 months and she’s getting it tomorrow. I’m nervous we’re doing it too early. Also - I’ve seen the onesies but in my mind, trying to get it on would run against the wound. We got a cute little strawberry donut. She has a grade 1 heart murmur so I’m very nervous about her going under but I know our vet wouldn’t said it was dangerous or not

    I just had my Bella spayed. Shes a G.S./ Belgian Malinois x. My experience was a little different. Her doctor felt that the cone wasn't necessary. She did get some pain meds. I can't see her stitches at all. Her favorite words are belly rub, so checking the area is very easy. She did try to lick it alittle after I brought it to her attention, but she also knows leave it, so she left her area alone. I'm now on day 5, so far shes doing great. I really enjoyed this video and do wish that I had seen it before the surgery. The comfort it would have brought would have helped relax me alot. Again thankyou for sharing. Nala is beautiful.

    My dog got spayed three days ago. The morning after she would not eat. By that evening she was eating again. I feel bad that she has to wear a cone. I found it helpful to frequently rub her ears and face. She is comforted by it and it must feel good since she is unable to reach those areas because of the cone.

      once a dog has their first heat cycle it’s a 8% chance/risk of them getting mammary cancers, after their second cycle it’s around 30% chance so you definitely want to spay them before their 2nd cycle. some people do suggest letting them have their first cycle as stated in the video for bigger dogs because they can have the risk of less joint growth due to the early spaying, with that being said it is all personal choices and there is nothing wrong with you doing it at that age! there are so many benefits to spaying, i see it as a “do i want my dog to have cancer or do i want my dog to _____” type of thing as a owner, and if i’m being honest i have seen a dog go through cancer and it is god awful. i think you made the right decision (in my opinion)

    • @fantasy4261
      @fantasy4261 2 роки тому

      Mammary tumors have over a 25% chance of appearing in non spayed females; approximately 50% of them are malignant. Mammary tumors are more common in intact than in spayed females; in fact spaying before the first or second heat cycle significantly reduces the risk of developing mammary tumors. Median age on presentation is 10 to 11 years. Not to mention spayed females can still get mammary tumors it’s just less common. Waiting until 1 will still give benefits.

    Okay, this may be TMI, but as a human who has had my uterus and ovaries removed, I was shocked to find out after my surgery that I still bled for a week or so post-surgery and had to wear sanitary pads for a while. I wonder if that is what your dog was doing? When you think about it, they literally remove and close her cervix and so even that is an internal wound up inside her vagina. So brown discharge from her vagina makes sense to me. My ob/gyn described female insides after a hysterectomy as, imagine, the sleeve of a sweater (the vagina) and someone sews the cuff closed (the cervix). That area needs to heal in addition to the internal incisions from the uterus and ovaries. It's just my thoughts, I'm not a doctor, but it makes sense to me after my human spay experience. My little dog just got done this week and so far, so good.
