Mochi is 28 weeks old and 8.5 lbs. She was spayed yesterday and recovering well.

Mochi was spayed (ovariohysterectomy) yesterday.  We dropped her off at 9am and pickup was 4pm.  We delayed her surgery to allow time for her baby teeth to come out and a quick inspection at the vet confirmed no baby teeth needed to be removed.

Here's the medication they gave, Tramadol 10mg (pain killer) and Metacam 0.25ml (anti-inflammatory).

She had some pain doing number 2 when she got home, but she was fine this morning.  So far, no other problems.  She's eating and drinking well.  We are told to limit her activity for 7 to 10 days till her next vet visit.

We opted for the more expensive laser surgery option.  They said swelling, bleeding and inflamation are generally decreased. 

Mochi's belly was shaved, no more black hair.









Head collar, but we chose to use the baby onesie instead.

Mochi is growing fast.  Here's her first rain coat before and after.



































We also needed to get a new carrier, her old one is too small :(  Here's Mochi in her new Pupsaver safety seat.



















Notice Mochi's new bow?  We bought them from Bowbiz Dog Bows.
