| Spay, microchip, and dew claws removal tomorrow Gina's big day is tomorrow, as the the title says, she is getting spayed, micro-chipped, and her front dew claws removed. She also turns 6 months tomorrow as well. We got her trimmed yesterday, and she gets a bath tonight, then oh such a fun filled day for her. I have the preemie long sleeve onesies ready for when she gets home, the long sleeves are for covering the bandages on her front paws. I'll be glad to get this part past us, then back to more training, she's well on her way to service dog trained, even though we still have 6 months before she can be certified. Cheers Quad

| Aww, very big day for you & Gina tomorrow. You'll want to stay close to her and lay on the loving while she's resting and recouping. She'll be back on her feet & back to training in no time. Good luck & get well soon, little Gina!

| Cook finally took a nice nap after getting spayed this morning. Hope Gina's recovery tomorrow is a quick one.

| Aww you and gina will be in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery (((hugs))) for little Gina :-) so are her dew claws detached from her leg bones? I had asked my vet about this and he said some are, and some are not. Gizmos are attached and he told me it would be like cutting off his fingers because the bone connection, so I will be leaving Gizmos next month, when he is due to be neutered. My vet said he only removes dew claws that are only held by skin because of the pain it can cause. Will be checking here tomorrow to see that all goes well xoxo |

| Thanks, and I'm not sure if they are attached to the bone or not, but I've seen too many dogs get them ripped out on something, and that's a lot more pain than the amputation by vet. I appreciate all the good wishes. Cheers Quad

| Was just curious :-) I'm sure they are not attached. Gizmo has total bone connecting the. The vet said more are unattached then are :-) |

| Get well soon, Gina! I'm amazed how quickly Cookie has bounced back. She'll be crying to go outside and play in no time I bet, and I wager Gina will be ready to play again soon too.

| Gina's home, and a little out of it, she only got spayed and micro-chipped, my vet like Sunnydayz, didn't want her to have to recover from that much pain. Thank all of you for the well wishes, and speedy recoveries. Cheers Quad

| Was the dew claw attached with bone? Glad to hear Gina seems to be doing well. Was she able to get any food or water into her without vomitting, or did your vet say to hold off until evening?

| She's still out of it, I did give her a bit of Enercal, same thing as Nutrical, and she drank a little water. Right now she's sleeping on my lap on the couch. As for the baby teeth, none needed pulling. Cheers Quad
