@mnbadger - I have not had any experience with that (in 30+ yrs of raising Basenjis) but I would say nothing different
Chance Neuter Update
-
and that is interesting that they used external stitches, that is the same place that Ann goes with Crystal and Kobey. When Crystal was spayed they did not use stitches, it was glued… maybe it depends on what Vet.... as they have a number of them. I know that Ann has to fight to make sure she sees the one Vet that she likes there
-
I am not sure if they did "external" stitching. I took a picture the other day due to it being so red. Here is a rather close up of the suture. He is still really swollen and red.
Yes this is odd…I don't usually take these types of pictures of my dog.
-
It is a little hard to tell but I didn't see any stitches that would have to be removed. Those are external stitches where you actually can see the stitches. Nicky was had internal stitches and glue. Some animals can have a reaction to the glue which may cause the redness but Chance looks really red in that picture.
-
His stitches should dissolve on their own.
-
Yeah, I thought I saw dissolving stitches…but that looks pretty bad; not so much the incision, but the surrounding skin looks really irritated; I am glad you followed up on it.
Side note: Tim looked over while I was viewing the pic...and he was like 'what in the h&ll are you looking at!!! nevermind...I don't want to know' He wouldn't give me the chance to explain!!!

don't feel bad!!! A pic is worth a thousand words. I bet Chance would be honored to know so many people cared about what was going on with his tushy!

I inspect and pick a lot too! Tim is always saying 'poor dogs…what are you DOING!?!'Add me to that list too!!!!!! That is what Ted says… he tells the Basenjis, "run her she comes to pick!!!"
-
Me too…poor Nala just groans and tries to get away when I start "searching" LOL!
Well, Vanessa...I think you've got your first entry for Chance's blog, "...and then after the dreaded snip-snip, she actually posted a close up of it for all the world to see! A close up!!! I'm ruined." -

Hahaha!
Kiya won't even let him get close. She is the one who wears the pants. LOLAt least till the first time she comes in season… then you are in for a real shock!!!! These girls turn into "sluts"... totally!!!!!
-
Not always. Rally has always remained firm in her belief that Nicky would never be the father of her puppies, EVER! She also would prefer that he not sire any of her grandchildren either, even if he is neutered.

Yeah….a couple of mine would NEVER fall into the "slut" category. More like the "nun" category

Here is a question regarding a bitch in season.
At what age do bitches go into season generally. Is it after they are a year old or is it sooner.
Also, should I be training her to wear panties right now. God forbid…with her in season...our house will NOT look like it is too!
People have told me to just put blankets all over the place...I don't like that idea too much.
