Re: op
Ergee, I am so glad to hear that Donna is okay now. We are all lucky that our animals can get such good medical care. I have read somewhere that at the University of Illinois it is much harder to get accepted into their veterinary school than into medical school!

Now I am confused..... Cooper has had surgery??? And Polle??? I thought they were both males ???
Beauty, yes
Donna, yes
Alli (the labrador ) yes, in a few hours..
But males seldom ger womb infection

Who talked about "womb infection" ?
A castration is done by surgery....(in normal cases....at least!).

Well..... Ally's cat had that.... And Alli had that..... Maybe we didn't say it in these terms exactly but at least I understood that Beauty had to go to surgery quickly because of womb infection. I do rather have my dogs uncastrated if I can - but pyometra (uterus infection) is very, very serios and there really is no choice if you want to keep your dog alive.ergee wrote:Who talked about "womb infection" ?

Poor our Alli - she is not feeling well.... I think (and hope) that it is because of the anestethics. Imagine - she does not want to eat ANYTHING!!! Labradors never say no to food... But... it is only 3 hours since the surgery was over....

Thanks!!
At the moment the worst part is keeping this plastic thing around the neck. I hope she gets used to it soon.
She ate some food, and has been outside doing "her business".
Hopefully tomorrow is a bit easier.

Oh I know this thing!! But..... labradors just tear them apart It does not take more than 30 minutes and they make a hole in it and then it is gone. So Alli has to manage with the plastic collar for some days. I take it off when she eats and also when we go outside. But I cannot leave here alone without it. When I turn my back she is trying to lick.
This morning Alli feels much better She ate very well and she is wagging her tail and seems comfortable. She is getting used to how big the collar is, she does not bump into things as much as yesterday evening. So far I am happy with the progress.

Ally - I started to look on internet - maybe they have made better and stronger "after operation" overalls. And YEAS!!! They say that even big dogs have not been able to take them off or tear them apart. They are quite expensive tho - about 45 euros, but as Anna has labradors too it may come to use again. So I am off now to get one for Alli. Fingers crossed that it works well

Re: op
Maybe it would be valuable if you could mention the name of this thing
and where we can find it on internet...
Would you please tell us?

Re: op
I have not found this anywhere else than in Finland. It is Finnish made...
I would call it a postoperative overall and I think it says so in Ally's picture too.
The Finnish site is: http://www.niikku.fi/ but it is only in Finnish...

I think it is... we shall see. It is now on Alli and she is a little bit confused, but not as bad as with the collar thing.

It was already a bit late before I had the possibility to take pics and Alli had no time to stay still when we got outside.

Alli looks great in her new overall -- that has to be sooooo much better than those stupid neck collars. Do you mind if I share your pictures with Cooper's vet?

Ally - I had Saima with me to the pet shop and we tried different sizes. This was the absolut best one (L) as the next one was far too big. It was so long that it fell over the butt and that would have made peeing really difficult - and messy. The lady at the shop told me that if it is too big, then the dog will find a way to get out of it - houdini-dogs
Bisky - of course you can show the pics! Also tell that the material is breathing and it is treated to be antibacterial (or something like that).
I was a bit worried that it would not let the wound get enough air to heal but they assured me that it will. So let's see
Also I don't see why someone could not start importing these.... something like this should have been on the market a long time ago!!
