<p class=MsoNormal>I have to say I have taken offense to Cathy’s remark
about how Reba just had major surgery and I should “give the poor
girl a break” and I have told her so. I was merely
asking for advice on whether or not this was normal and what I could do to help
her. I have always had animals and every one of my animals was
spayed. Other than maybe some same night vomiting, all my animals bounced
back and were eating and drinking fine the next day, albeit maybe not as much
as usual. I had a choc. Lab who after being neutered, came home and jumped off
the top of 4 stairs into the yard and acted as if nothing had even
happened. I really expected Reba to be feeling a little better this
morning and when she didn’t seem to be, I was concerned. My vet
doesn’t open until 10 on Friday and I wasn’t sure if I should be
concerned about the persistent vomiting so when in doubt, check with the
droolers, they’ll know. I did speak with my vet later
this morning and was reassured this is normal in some dogs and she should be
starting to feel a little better by evening. She told me to boil some hamburger
and rice and offer that. Its sitting in the bowl now untouched but hopefully
she’ll start eating soon. As if I didn’t feel guilty enough about
having her undergo surgery, now she really feels crummy….<o:p></o:p></p>
