I'm baaaack!

Madison♄ on Health - Wed, April 16 2008

Monday I had my spay surgery at the FACE clinic. Everyone there was very nice. I was excited to see all the other dogs there and cried on my leash because mom wouldn't let me go say 'hi'. When a nurse finally came over to give me some attention, I climbed right up onto her and peed on her. Mom was embarassed, but I was excited!

My doctor had a funny accent but he was very nice to me. I didn't even get scared when I got my shot.

I got to meet another Boston named Tux while I was there, and Beverly's mom! They were both very nice.

After my surgery was a different story. I got very sick for the whole day. I puked in the car twice on the way home, and I puked three or four times at home. I was not feeling good at all. Mom snuggled me on the couch though. Yesterday I was feeling better. I still didn't eat much, but a little kibble and some of mom's steak.

But I am glad to say that today is a new day. I feel much better. I am back to my perky Boston self! I ate almost a whole bowl of food as soon as I woke up this morning and I have been drinking lots of water and playing with a plastic bottle toy. Mom said we still have to wait a few more days before I am allowed to go anywhere, but I can't wait until we go back out.

Oh, one other thing, those people at FACE shaved my tummy! It is really smooth and weird now. And my belly where the incision is seems extra saggy. D: I don't want to lose my girlish figure!

Love,
Princess Madison
XOXO

Princess Madison, we are very glad to hear that you're feeling much better today. We said our puppy prayers for you last night. Take it easy for a few days, okay?

I'm glad you're feeling better, Madison! My mom just loves you. I heard her telling her friend how adorable and sweet you are. You got steak?! I'm having a talk with mom. Pablo got carrots, you got steak, we got dog food. It's just not right!!

Glad your spay went well and you are feeling better. Mom took me to the FACE clinic to get spayed too. You are right, everyone is very nice. I'm glad your Mommy is so responsible and smart and took you to get fixed. Hopefully more pets' mommies and daddies will do the same thing! Take it easy for a few more days Madison so you can heal up!

We're so glad your feeling better. Now you need to take it easy until things heal up a bit.

That's very wonderful news Madison! You had us worried there! So, about this steak...did you save any for your IP pals???

Don't worry about your tummy Madison. Ellie Mae's hair has all grown back now and her incision looks great. Her's was a little saggy for a few weeks but has since tightened up. Just have Mom make sure it isn't oozing anything and doesn't look really red. You should heal up real soon and your girlie figure will return!

Yeah, Madison!! We TOLD you you'd feel better soon! Just take it easy on the jumps (beds, couch) and running for a bit. You don't want to rip any stitches. I had my "guts out" (Daddy's term) about a 1.5 yrs ago now and my belly is tight & smooth again (not much hair on this Jackie bellies) and you can see my scar. Glad to see the sun is shining on you today, Madison!

We are so glad you are feeling better Madison. We were all really worried about you. Take it easy the next few days. Maybe you will be able to go out this weekend to the park or something. I heard it's supposed to be nice out.

That sounds like quite an adventure for you Madison! Glad to hear everything went well and that you're feeling better. Wow, you get steak...Maggie Clemontine gets Whoopie Pie. Hmmm...think they'll let me get a tummy tuck and I'd get yummy treats afterwards??
