This is copy and pasted from my diary... but I felt like posting it here, because well, as I say later I don't exactly want to ask anyone these things out loud or in person. lol
Got up early this morning, got ready, woke up a sleepy little girl who I dressed before she really could even stand up, haha. And off we went to go pick up Boudreaux. Delta kept saying to me, "He's tired, mama." I said that yeah, he probably would be a bit sleepy when we got him.
Surprisingly enough, he came out into the waiting room just searching, looking from one person to the next, until I said, "Hey big guy! We're right here..." And he whipped his head the other way, saw Delta and me, and just didn't stop wiggling with excitement. Not so tired afterall, Delta!
Right now he's beside my chair, snoozing on the floor, and Delta is sitting right beside him. "He's better, ma." She keeps telling me. Lets give him a week hunny.
Now, maybe some will this this is inappropriate to discuss, but... I thought that his ball sack would have been removed as well? I mean, I've never had a boy dog in my entire life before, and any dog I've seen fixed didn't have this empty saggy sack like he's got. Does it shrink? Or is it going to be like that forever (not that it matters but its very obviously empty looking to me, knowing what they used to look like! lol) because he'd been fixed after they were already well pronounced? I mean, heck guys, he's a freaking Great Dane, his balls were huge. LOL So just imagine an equally huge empty bag hanging between his legs!
Anyways, another thing I'm a little surprised about, it looks like they incision they made might've been actually towards the back of his penis... (This could be wrong, I haven't looked closely, I'm just leaving him rest.) But I'd been under the impression that (since they didn't remove testicles, skin and everything) they'd cut on the sack itself, but it seems normal looking (minus the empty look of course).
LOL I guess I have questions that I don't really want to ask anyone out loud! LOL
When we got home, I sent proof of his neuter to his breeder, so I'll be receiving his papers soon. Thats exciting.
