Princess, Get a second opinion. Do not just go with what 1 vet says. I have a friend of mine who just does anything and everything her vet says. So now, she is in the hole several thousands dollars. She had had everything under the sun done to her cats, dogs, and bird. She was thinking of taking in a chipmonk who comes to her and takes bread & peanuts out of her hand to eat. Medical doctors are the same way. If they find out you will spend money, they will milk you for repeat office visits, and needless surgeries, and so on. Same goes with our furkids. We have to watch out for them. The one suggestion I may ask of you to do is this - ask Violaine. She is very good with info. on most everything on all kinds of our pets. She is brilliant. Truely. She maybe able to help you. Please keep us posted on this. I am a huge animal lover. I will keep you and your baby in my thoughts and prayers. Peace be with you both. Love, Drew |

Bella, I'm sorry about your puppy..
Just like in a human, any time they go under there is a risk.. But that being said.. I have assisted in about 15 proceedures using gas on a young cat/dog and they all came out of it.. It's not a hard proceedure, it's just because she can't verbalize what she is feeling, that she needs to stay with the vet for a lil bit of time... If it's a teaching hospital, then yes, someone is going to be there and she is going to be loved on... She might be a lil scared, but honestly, when we had babies in for longer than over nights, we loved on them... At the vet hospital that I worked at.. We didn't recomend visits...(for non critical animals) The repeate separation tended to be more stressful than the waiting... Truthfully, I don't know if that is true or not.. that was just the vet's policy... I know it's a hard thing, but separation is not always a bad thing... It teaches them that you do come back...

But, I will do what is best for her, not necessarily what is best for me. I am glad your other Shih Tzu's eyes are doing great. Would love to see your babies. I have one posted of bella as well. Thanks again and bless you for your post and advice.

If it makes you feel better, make arrangements to go visit one time right after her surgery just so that you can see for yourself that she is doing okay after the surgery. The separation will likely be harder on you than it is on her, as she will get lots of loving.

Belle~
One more thing about Shitzu's you may or may not know. They are prone to kidney problems. We learned this the hard way when ours ended up having to have a stint put in his kidney. I will be keeping you and Bella in my prayers

BFF...this is going to be harder on you than it is on her. She will be scared for a little while until she gets use to the sounds and smells, but her purpose there will happen, and then she will be sedated and her recovery will stretch out the hours until she can come home to you.
I agree with Random about separation not being a bad thing. When my daughter was little and in preschool, oh she tantrumed when I dropped her off. She didnt want me to go. The teacher finally had to take my arm and pull me out of the room because I was so caught in my daughter's tears. The teacher said the same thing...my daughter had to learn I was going to come back. And the only way you can teach that was to leave and then, come back. I have started a little prayer book...it stays on my alter until I begin the prayers of the day. You and Bella will be in it today...
