Could Chepi still be getting over the operation, almost a month ago or will her energy levels be permanently effected? I don't think she is back to normal after the operation. She's just about 5% under par, I think she can't run around on her walks quite as much but maybe I am imagining it. Could she still be recovering?
Re: Post spay energy I don't know enough to say Jane....it's a big op though and she's been on restricted excercise...maybe she's just lost a bit of fitness while she has had her downtime? X
Re: Post spay energy My Gypsy was up to full energy the very next day and very hard to keep quiet. Tatze took a month or two to be back up to full speed, 'tho she was older when spayed (Gypsy was 6 months old and Tatze was 12 months) I think it's probably the case that they are all different. (When I had my spay I was 6 months in recovery )
Re: Post spay energy Her energy levels shouldn't be directly affected by the spay Jane , more likely that she just needs a little more time to fully recover and get back to tip top fitness . After Millies spay and her eye operation , I noticed that she seemed to tire more quickly , we just built up her fitness levels slowly , walked a little further every week , at least you ( hopefully ) have nicer weather coming up to encourage her to go the extra mile
Re: Post spay energy Thanks everyone. I will just go easy with her and try not to worry. Katieincornwall do you think there will be constrictions on taking dogs on beaches in Cornwall over Easter?
Re: Post spay energy Some beaches are dog friendly all year Jane, other are restricted from April until October , best thing is to visit the website for Cornwall Council , there is a link on there telling you which you can take dogs on , you can always from me a message telling me where you were thinking of visiting and I`d be happy to find out for you
Re: Post spay energy Thanks very much . I will check the website - probably beaches around Hayle, St. Erth, Carbis Bay, not StIves ( too busy) and maybe near Penzance. I'll check on line
Re: Post spay energy Harley took a few months before she was back to full fitness after her spay. She had a very long season then was on restricted exercise as had to have emergency op (spay) as had pyometra and had a twisted hernia. I also think harley calmed down after her spay - I put it down to her getting older and maturing??
