Poor Baby!

Basenji Talk

  • Mya got spayed yesterday, had her hernia removed, and got microchipped. I picked her up from the vet and she looked soooooo sad. I had to pick her up to get her into the car and boy did she let out a scream. One of the nurses, Jenn, helped me get her into the car all the while Mya was screaming and biting her. Mya even drew blood on Jenn. (I'm definately going to have to make that one up to her.) Mya had a pretty difficult day yesterday to say the least.

    Mya is much better today and has really perked back to her regular self. Still a bit tender, but genuinely a happy girl again.


  • Oh poor baby….here's to a quick recovery for her.


  • Well, I'm going to take Mya's side: If I got spayed, microchipped, and had a hernia repair, I bite the first person involved that I could get my teeth into!

    Poor Mya,

    Pat


  • My B, Sahara handled her spaying very well, it must have been the other things that made her so sensitive, like the hernia. I bet she is real sore from that, I thinks she deserves some doggie ice cream, poor baby!!!!!

    One of the nurses said that Mya was probably reacting that way due to the anesthesia. I also agree that the hernia played a part in the pain aspect for her.

    She has been fantastic all day today though. We're making sure she is well taken care of.

    Thanks all!


  • Poor girl.. hope she'll feel like herself again very quickly!

    I have an alpha female basenji and brought a newborn into our family. I was in the hospital for four days (my in laws stayed with dog and horse), when we came home, we had my Mom bring her new boyfriend. He was a great distraction, but also allowed me some alone time with Cricket. When they left, she noticed the baby in the bassinet and was a bit concerned. She adapted to the baby, but I don't leave them alone just in case. Cricket is not nearly as jealous as she was, now that he drops food for her at the table, but she did get a bit jealous for a few weeks. While I was pregnant, I was told that 'the test' was to play baby crying videos on YouTube. How the dog reacts will tell you how they will interact with the baby. Cricket beat the crap out of my phone when I tried… So not a great test! :)

    Arwen has the Chow Chow mentality– you threw it? You go get it. She would occasionally get something just to annoy the Rottie, occasionally in the house to stop Cara. Cara-- fetching fool.

    hopefully Dex is just teething. I worked very hard to keep toy-drive in Zest as it can make training easier and more fun. And she still often gets a treat for retrieving or tugging her toys.

    @renaultf1: Honestly, there is nothing cuter than baby yodels!! It is great that Malaika yodels. When Liyah was a pup, if the adults wouldn't play with her, she would bring stuffed animals to her reflection in the stereo cabinet and then would dance around and yodel to her reflection to try to get her to play :D:D. Liyah is the big talker of my 3 - when she wants Brando to play, she will pet him on his head and start talking to him - very comical! :D:D Oh, and we call Brando and Liyah the lovebirds because they are so enthralled with each other! That's so nice :)
