Thanks ! Seems the month for visitors !

4/5/2011

 
Thanks everyone for the kind words, support & patience after the news about Millie & Bonnie not being pregnant.
Tonight I have some lovely photo's of Roxy which where sent to me last week by Tracey & shows Roxy sunbathing & on night watch in the back garden. Tracey will be getting Roxy neutered next month as she will be around 6 months old & if you do not wish to have the surprise of an unexpected litter or the worry & mess from the blood that comes away from a girl whilst on heat from around 6 months for me is a good time to start thinking about getting them spayed. Thanks for the lovely photo's Tracey.
Tonight we also have an update on Little Poppy who is one of Roxy's sisters & their Mum is Lucy. Poppy is a very pround member of Mike's & Debbie's family & they say "she has massively rocked are world & we are so proud of her." I also hope to see Poppy this weekend as Mike has asked if they can pop in over the weekend for a visit to see Poppy's Mum & I look forward to seeing Little Poppy & catching up with what she has been getting up to. Thanks for the lovely photo's mike & hope to see you at the weekend.
May must be a month for visitors as Madeleine contacted me today about coming down from Leistershire on the 22nd to bring Oliver for a visit. Oliver is Smudge's brother with Millie being their Mum. This will be almost a Birthday get together as both Oliver & Smudge are one years old a few days after the 22nd. Looks like May is going to be fun catching up with everyone !

Hi,

I have a 2.5 year old cavalier bitch.

I had her spayed at six months as recommended by my then vet. Have regretted it ever since. Coat change has beeen the real problem. Will not spay my new cav bitch until later.

Maybe not such a problen with a cavapoo

I have had Cavalier bitches spayed at 6 months with no coat change & in later life with coat change. I have had male dogs like my Pupster neutered at 6 months & he is seven with the most beautiful coat yet are beloved old Smidge was neutered after 1 years old & his coat changed. Coat change can happen after spaying or neutering a dog at any age it can be one of the side effects but fluffy coat or the risk pyometra I know which one I would prefer. Coat change after neutering or spaying can happen with any dog whether purebreed or cross. As I said 6 months is a good time to start thinking about spaying. Talk to your vet getting all the pros & cons. Then the choice when to do it is upto you. One thing you will not get though from spaying from 6 months is a litter of unplanned pups.

Beat wishes
