Nekhbet Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 t has gone from a single operation breeders vet to being one of a franchise there seems to be a bit of this happening lately. Dont like it. Wont go to them, and they standardise it way too much to make it one size fits all. I went back to my old vet (who mum took our old GSD to about 10 years ago) he's still in the same tiny 2 room clinic up the road, best bloke you ever met and cheap as chips. I know who's looking after my dogs from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Age Outlaw Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Not sure what injections your vet gives? But we give two at the end of surgery - one anti-inflammatory, and one antibiotic. Both last around 24 hours, hence the three days worth of Rimadyl also. Where I worked they used to always give an injection of Metacam after spays - gives pain relief for about 24 hours.

Miranda Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I recently had a 7 year old bitch spayed and she was given 5 x Rimadyl, the first tablet to be given 24 hours post surgery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
