Re: Questions about getting dog spayed
The only thing that can be a problem after spaying is there tendancy to put on weight so you have to be carefull not to overfeed . it should not affect personality or any other aspect of the dog , also reduces the risk of mamary cancer , in rare cases it can make a bitch incontanent or have a reduced bladder controll btu this is not common and mostly in older dogs .

Re: Questions about getting dog spayed
All the female dogs I've had, and my parents have had have all been spayed. We've never come across any changes in personality and not experienced any weight issues either. My WSD was bouncing around the next day after her op you'd never had known she'd been spayed.

Re: Questions about getting dog spayed
high protein food can make them have one
thats one of the reasons we dont feed high protein food to dallies along with other reasons, but when you do get her done she will not need as much food and your have to watch her weight,

Re: Questions about getting dog spayed
I think one of the most difficult things after spaying is trying to keep the dog quiet afterwards! It's a huge operation that they go through yet healthy dogs recover remarkably quickly but they do need to be kept reasonably calm afterwards during their recovery. As mentioned, monitoring weight/diet is a must.

Re: Questions about getting dog spayed
I recently had one of my bitches spayed and it brought her to life!
She did put on a huge amount of weight and is still on a diet now but we have never seen her so playfull and full of beans! She's still herself but with more energy and is less moody ![]()

Re: Questions about getting dog spayed
Thankyou for the replies everybody
![]() I will pop her into the vets and get it sorted out with them and I will keep an eye on her weight in the future I was only worried about phantom pregnancy as the vet told me that some dogs are prone to them which was why they advised me to get her spayed. Once again - thankyou for all of your advice |
