[QUOTE="donna723, post: 18988, member: 1883"] Lisa, my little Boston, Ragan, was just spayed last Tuesday, and she bounced back really quick, so hopefully yours will too. They gave her pain medications right after the surgery, and gave me four more doses in little syringes to squirt into her mouth the next four mornings. Some kind of brown stuff ... "Previcox", it says. When I brought her home she could walk but was really loopy and trembling. I put her in her crate and she napped for several hours. When she woke up she was walking around but I could tell she was in pain. She would walk in tiny little baby steps and her eyes were squinted like she was hurting. She wouldn't eat and didn't do more than stick her tongue in the water bowl. Mostly, she just slept that first day. I gave her the pain medications the next morning. By that afternoon she was pretty much back to her normal little ol' self again but still didn't feel like eating much. I haven't given her any more of the pain medications since that first morning because she didn't act like she needed them. She's been running all over the house and bouncing around like she always did. She's still picky about what she eats though and her stomach has been a little upset. All in all, it's just the first day or so that are rough for them. One thing that tickled me ... the stuff her sewed her up with is hot pink! He gave Ragan HOT PINK stitches! Very appropriate for her! The little boy dogs probably get blue stitches when [i]they[/i] have surgery! [/QUOTE]
