Hey all-
Sorry I haven't posted in awhile our boys are doing great and growing quickly. I have been purusing this site for all the info possible on neutering since both Kip & Albie are getting neutered this Thursday. Albie is about 6 1/2 months and Kip is 9 months. I am feeling pretty much prepared, knowing how to prepare, but the outcomes and during is what I am most worried about. Are there things I need to have for them after the surgery? I know they will come home with meds but are there other things I should consider? I know no stairs, and make them comfy but I am just one over protective mom. I am having the hardest time letting them be at the vet all day. I feel horrible about it. Any advice? reassurance? tips? I really appreciate it. I am sure it will probably be harder on me than them. I just need to remember it is a routine procedure and they do it every day. I am just afraid of the rare accidents and seeing my boys in pain.
Also, did any of you see any behavioral changes in your dogs after the neuter? Just recently Albie and Kip have started to mount (about 2 -4 weeks ago) will this subside? Any other major changes?
Thanks again. I am surprise I can even type since I am so nervous for them!
