Yeah, I'm corny, SHUT UP!
As long as Matt's mom is OK with him being here a week or two before I move into my place. I need to get him fixed before I move in (Mostly because he had the appt before all the craziness that happened, and I'd like to get that done before the stress of moving).
I saw a vet half a mile from the turn off road to my new house and stopped in and bombarded them in typical Ang style, asking if they had any of their vets had Giant Breed experience. The lady said that all of them did (Uh Oh), but then I told her I had a Great Dane, and she said I was smart to ask because they have their own special needs. (Of course I'm smart, HELLOOOOOOOO!) I then asked her their opinions on Vaccinosis and Titers, on Protien levels and Raw feeding. I asked about their neutering procedures and bloodwork options, do they have 24 hour surveillance, is bloodwork standard protocol, is the laser surgery an option? No they don't have a laser, they do the surgeries in the morning so if there is a reaction it shows itself before anyone leaves at night, they usually don't do bloodwork on healthy young dogs but I can ask for it, the Neuter is only going to be $204 (As opposed to the $360 or 380 I was going to pay before), and the bloodwork is $80. They can pull it when I take him in for a $30 check up, and then do the surgery for a week later when the results are in.
I miss my baby so much! I heard him yawn in the background today and it took every thing I had not to break down into tears. Tenchi, I'm sorry I'm taking your buddy away, but I need him more than you do!
