My little Dachshund foster, Dani, had extensive surgery today to remove more than 20 mammary tumors. She is a senior girl so they didn't want to put her under again so they spayed her and did a dental too. She was under for a long time. I brought her home four hours ago and she hasn't moved. She did drink a few big syringes of water. She's is completely out of it and no way could I get her clavamox and tramadol into her tonight. She will probably be out for the count anyway so that have to wait until tomorrow morning.
Please say a prayer for this little girl. She was a breeder until she was of no more use and was abandoned on the side of the road with all these tumors, infected teeth, eyes and ears. I just snapped a pic of her in her cushy, comfy bed. Her compression bandage is to help prevent the blood from pooling at the incision sites. It stays on until I take her back for her recheck on Thursday.
She's as sweet as they come, never barks, tail continually wagging. She so deserves to get through this and find a wonderful home. I would appreciate it if all you angels would watch over her and keep her in your prayers.
