Experience sharing: Preparation and postoperative care for dog neutering

Experience sharing: Preparation and postoperative care for dog neutering

First of all, I would like to introduce the situation of my baby. Xiaobai and Nana, pastoral dogs, have been sterilized, and they are both girls. I was very confused about whether to do it or not. I was seven months old when I did it, and I was not in heat. If it's a little early now, it should be done at about 10 months, or 1 year old, so that the bones are fully developed. If sterilization is done too early, estrogen deposition is not enough, which may lead to osteoporosis in old age.

Do you do sterilization or not?

As for doing and not doing, this is the master's choice, not necessarily do completely good, do not do completely bad, things have two sides. 。 I think I am a negative example. At that time, I firmly believed that it was better to be early. Checked a lot of information, the domestic bias in the United States system, tend to do early ~ the United States may be about 3-4 months to do, mainly some famous kennels, afraid of wanton breeding, so the sale of neutered dogs.


If sterilization is not done, the greatest harm is pyometra. The main reason is that the pressure of life is too great. If pets live in northern Europe, sparsely populated, friendly to animals, good environment and less pollution, there is really no need to do it. Of course, the premise is that you can create such an environment for dogs.

I have been thinking for a long time. I can't create a completely unmanned and stress-free living environment for Xiaobai and Nana. The pressure of the city is very great. A lot of people, virtually will give the dog a lot of pressure and mental tension, so struggling for a long time finally decided to do ~

Precautions!

Choice of sterilization hospital

Reflecting on the choice of sterilization hospital for Xiaobai and Nana, I think there is also a big problem. To sum up, the hospital must be chosen well, not only carefully selected, but also groping. Some people don't care to say that interns can do sterilization surgery, really not, after all, is surgery, especially girls. The operation of open abdomen, must be careful, choose good hospital, contrast more. If it is recommended by a friend, it is best that it is used by others. My mistake


at that time was that I chose two hospitals by mistake, made an appointment, staggered for an hour, and if the first one changed temporarily, there would be a second one. The first hospital is a veteran in the industry and has a good reputation. The second one belongs to the cutting-edge online, exclusive to star pets. Finally, on reflection, we must look for senior people in the industry, not stars for their own use, because stars'pets can be taken good care of everywhere. We're not stars, so don't go.

Time of sterilization operation

At that time, I struggled with the question of morning or afternoon for a long time. Finally, I chose to take Xiaobai and Nana there in the morning. First of all, the doctor's physical strength and energy are better, and a night of fasting and water deprivation is more natural. Secondly, if there is a problem, you can take it back in time in the afternoon. If you do it in the afternoon, there is a problem in the evening. There is no 24-hour hospital in many places!

Intraoperative and postoperative care

The most important thing is to ask the doctor about the time of fasting and water deprivation. At that time, I confirmed with the two hospitals that Xiaobai and Nana needed different fasting time, so we must grasp it well. Not just before, but after. 。 Don't change your child's eating time because of heartache. If fasting and water deprivation are not done well before operation, it is easy to cause tracheal cough and suffocation during operation.

This is a big lesson ~ ~ Xiaobai and Nana before sterilization, I asked a lot of people, others suggested that after sterilization, appetite is not good, change to pure canned feeding, one is to increase nutrition, one is better absorption. However, from the experience, don't change the child's eating habits at will. I don't understand at first. It's really unnecessary to change the child from dog food to canned food. After the operation, he feels uncomfortable and has no appetite. He can eat something good. But the problem of canned food is that it may cause slower gastrointestinal peristalsis, no defecation, leading to enteritis. This is my lesson. !

Xiaobai and Nana finished the operation, the doctor said not to have an anti-inflammatory injection, I was dubious at that time, they said a meal. I think I must keep calm and harmonious before the operation, and I also believe in the doctor's attitude. So we didn't do any anti-inflammatory measures at all, and we even left the hospital without infusion. Who knows that the follow-up causes a series of problems such as Nana's slow wound healing and enteritis! Still hold to the nearest pet hospital for a few days of anti-inflammatory injections, the child also suffered so much! Be sure


after art antiphlogistic perhaps hits long-acting antiphlogistic needle, perhaps go hitting antiphlogistic needle everyday! Don't listen to some quacks who say that intraoperative asepsis and abuse of antibiotics seem to be for your sake, but in fact, the last trouble is yourself, which is also a lesson of blood and tears!

An exhortation written at the end

A lot of people say that sterilization is already very mature, it doesn't matter ~, you can find a doctor to do it at will, I don't think so. Must choose a good doctor, choose a good hospital, at the same time parents do fasting, do not rigidly change the child's eating habits, what to eat before, what to eat after surgery, strengthen nutrition should be, but do not blindly adjust. As for sterilization whether to do, when to do, really depends on the different circumstances of each family, not to say that it must be good to do, not to do it must be bad, weigh it ~ must be careful
