ok...jessie is going for her 2nd re-ck to see if she is fully out of her false pregnancy. if she is....well, then she is scheduled for her spay on wednesday. WHY IS THIS UPSETTING ME SO MUCH?
my RATIONAL head is saying i KNOW it is so much healthier for her to be spayed. my rational head is saying she's not a good candidate for breeding b/c i just don't know enough about her background & as beautiful as she is, i still don't know anything about her line.
my EMOTIONAL head is saying she would be such a great mother. and if we breed her my husband will let me keep one of her babies so i know i will have a part of her for even longer than her lifespan (hopefully). if i don't spay her no way will my husband let me get another spoo just yet. too much going on in our lives which the caregiving we do for my mom and my uncle, to a degree. (i know the second part of this is a flimsy reason).
and THIRD - i'm afraid something will happen to her during the spay. she's a sensitive dog and i have to leave her overnight. they love her at my vet's office and i know them there.
am i being silly or just plain crazy??????????
