Good for you! I'm just about too, but I'll pop in and out of here to see how she's doing - you'll notice my posts will become more and more mushy with each glass of wine! :005:

Aww, she'll be fine once the aneasthetic wears off. I gave ellie some chicken and rice, she was hungry but she picked the chicken out and left the rice. Ellie had been given a painkilling injection and hasn't shown any sign of discomfort. She was nearly her usual self the next morning.

Ellie sends lots of cocker kisses to Honey and says to tell her she knows how it feels but she will forget about it soon.

milly and me hope she (and you)! feel better soon  :luv:

milly was fine when she was spayed.  my only problem was keeping her from jumping on everything  :P

she was not too keen on the short lead walks either!  she is an off-lead girl - like most cockers i think!

all the best from us anyway   :shades:

with lots of love from silly milly and her mum!!!!

Honey had a really good night - didnt hear a peep out of her!!

Although I did wake up at 4am to find her in our bed but I didnt have the heart to put her back in her own  :-\

Looks like she has perked up a bit as she tried to steal the little ones crumpet this morning!!!  >:D :005:

She has now eaten her breakfast and is asleep at my feet  :luv:

Hopefully she'll have a good day!!

Can I take her out for a walk today? Or should I wait a few days?

If you think she's up for it, I would def take her out for a short walk on the lead today. Probably better to have lots of short walks - 10 mins or so - for a couple of days though  ;)

Glad she is feeling better  :D

I'm glad to hear the Honey had a good night Lucy. The little  :angel: she must have known how stressed out you were.
I hope the wine helped and you haven't got a bad head this morning.

Glad Honey and you had a good night  :-*

If she is feeling up to going out take her for a very short on lead walk - let her stop and sniff and just be out side for a bit

I didn't take Fern out except into the garden for the first two days after her op and then just short on lead walks for a few days after that and gradually increased it  :D

I gave Honey a short on lead walk the following afternoon, as she was desperate to get out (sitting by the front door and whining!).  Since then she has had 2 gentle on lead walks a day - we've been out up to half an hour, but definately not walking all that time - we've been stop/starting to prevent pulling, stopping to talk to people and stopping to sniff.  It's been about enough to keep her sane, but she is starting to get very antsy now!

Haven't managed to stop her jumping onto the sofa - she even started jumping over the step I created out of a cushion!  ph34r

Her stitches looked a little red last night, but I think it was just where her tummy was full, as she had not long eaten when I checked.  They are fine this morning!

Lola was spayed about 5 weeks ago and I didn't walk her for about 5 days afterwards - I just took her out in the garden and played hunt the fircone!  By day 5 she had dug four massive holes in garden.

Give Honey arnica tablets (helps the healing process) def. worked for Lola, I also had arnica cream to rub in when the vet took the plaster off as it had got quite red and then of course with the licking, Lola became quite "hooked" on the taste  ::)

I thought when I was going thru the after-op care it would never end...but Lola is back to normal now apart from her hair which is taking forever to grow back.

Honey will soon be back to normal.
