I know the vet will give me aftercare advice for her, but i wonder if i coud pick the brains of those of you who have had their girls done, as i've only ever had males neutered. I'm likely to forget…

I work in a small home for adults with learning disabilities and one of the guys has expressed an interest in having a fish tank.

My dog was spayed on Saturday. I took her to the vets for POC and I asked when she could start playing with the other dog again.
