My female mini-dachshund is almost 6 months old and next week she's booked in with my local vet for her to be de-sexed.
Was just wondering of the Shottalkers' experiences when getting their female dogs desexed.
What was the recovery time like?
Are they back to normal? (ie. no ongoing sensitivity on the belly)
Has their been a tendency gain weight? (no, not you. The puppy)
Any complications?
Apparently we're supposed to "keep her quiet" for a week or so and not let her do anything strenuous that might tear her stitches. Which'll be an 'interesting' challenge because she's a nut bag with an abundance of energy. Running around crazy is as natural as breathing to her.
All responses appreciated.
