On Monday we had Binsey spayed. She spent the night recovering at the vet's and came home yestrday afternoon. It all went very smoothly and she's doing very well. Now she has two weeks to heal, and after 10 days she can have her stitches taken out. I was scared about the incision because they said it'd be pretty big, but it's only got three stitches and really isn't all that gross looking. But, last night she was licking herself, and we were worried she might take a nibble at the stitches (she didn't, thankfully), so she's stuck in an "e collar" now.
It's a little big for her, and she can't navigate too well with it on, but at least we'll all be able to sleep peacefully now (she's on some good pain meds). Given how much she likes to chew, we didn't want to take any chances! She shouldn't need it after a week or so, and she really only needs it when she's going to take a nap in her crate.
After this is all done, she can finally go to the dog park and work out all that energy she's storing up!
