milo's 1st surgery
milo is having his first (and hopefully his last) surgery tomorrow-- the big cut to be neutered. i feel bad for him but 1.) i figured this surgery is part of being a responsible pet owner since we don't want any unexpected puppies (though i'm sure they'd be adorable!), 2.) the vet said he might calm down a bit, 3.) i don't think lotte was put on earth to be a punching bag for milo. i'm sad because i don't want him in pain.
the interesting thing is that when i spoke with the vet, they were asking if i wanted the option of other surgeries. when i said no to one, they offered another. they wanted to clip his nostrils first. when i said no to that they wanted to open the are near his soft palette. no to that, too! what is this?! i only want him neutered!!! i'll cross those other bridges only if necessary. i guess they do this to pug owners but c'mon...the dog has a face that is as flat as a wall... they'll always have breathing problems!
Good luck Milo! You'll be fine!
Molly on the other hand is horribly ill. If she recovers at all.... it'll be months. :(
