Vet Visit

It's a big day for a little pupper! Piper is going in to the vet in a few minutes for the spaying that her original owners should have done five years or so ago. Wish her little pain and a speedy recovery!

We'll have to postpone the spay again. The tech I talked to a while back said they ought to be able to work with the false pregnancy, but the doctor who called me this morning after dropping her off feels differently. They can try to work around the mammary veins and milk ducts, he said, especially if it's on the tail end of the pregnancy, but he's worried about doing that with Piper who, he said, "could supply the dairy" right now.

So we're going to wait another month-to-six-weeks and bring her back to see if she's ready for surgery. Ah well.
