Is this a usual practice? I booked Emily in for today, and made the appointment last August when she was just finishing her first season. I phoned the vet last night to confirm she was coming in today and she asked about her last season. Then she said because it was not 3 mths since then (just 2and a half) that we couldn't have her done. She said it was because the blood vessels might not have returned to normal. Then when I said i would book her in for christmas hols instead (so I could be with her) she said that was no good because that could be too close to her next season, and the blood vessels would be large again!! She advised me just to have her done on a Friday, spend the weekend with her, and go back to work on Monday as usual!! Any thoughts?
