Hi everyone.......
Dahlia was spayed by laser on Jan 8th,10.
She also had 4 baby canine teeth pulled that had huge roots
and would not have come out on their own.They would have
ruined her bite so we pulled them all.I was in surgery and recovery with her the whole time.
She was so good not even fighting the gas or crying.
My vet is not real keen on chihuahuas but Im sure she impressed them.She was totally co-operative at my command.
She is 7 mos old and being unbred her uterus was only the size of a dime! I kept waiting for him to pull a plum size uterus out but he said "well there it is".It looked like a tiny piece of tissue! Im like "what?"Afterwards we moved to a waiting room where I stroked and talked to her for 5 mins when she came out of the gas effects.She just rolled her eyes up to see me and crawled into my arms to be cuddled.She didnt whimper or whine once.
Twenty minutes later she could stand and walk so we went home.
She was able to eat scrambled eggs 2 hrs post op and moistened kibble by evening.
She had no drugs for pain just some homeopathic remedy he
bathed the incision site with.Also there are no stitches to remove.
Well 24 hrs post op she is herself again!! The incision is barely visible.She can walk and play as before.She went pee and poo this morning fine.Only after effect is a raspy voice/dry throat from the tube down her throat.
I cannot reccomend enough this high tech spay procedure!!
Urge your vet to update to this technology as it is also used for cancer treatment and other things.It was not that expensive either.It cost me $145 plus the anestetic!
I am so glad I did this for her and gave her the gift of a stress free life as my loving companion.
See her photos below:
