My poor baby is recovering. I feel so bad for him but also glad it is over with. He is still very loopy and clumsy.

Wishing him a speedy recovery

Cutest boy. Hoping for a swift and uncomplicated recovery.

I know that with humans a vasectomy is not always 100 successful. Will they be able to test after he has healed whether it has worked?

I don't think so but I think chance of failure is low enough that it isn't a real concern. Anyway it's just a failsafe. He still isn't going to be intentionally left around any in season bitches. I'd rather he remain naive.

He is SO handsome! Wishing him a quick recovery. Is recovery quicker than neuter?

Ok just asking as if I get a male it will have to be around some intact females when we visit family and a miniature poodle x rhodesian ridgeback mix puppies sound like a very bad idea!

Well that is only a problem if the female is in heat. Otherwise it is fine. I certainly wouldn't want to just set him free with a bitch in heat though. Even neutered he would probably still be very interested.

It took my Irish Setter seven months before he realized he could not create puppies. Just saying.

How old is he? There is a vet in my area who performs vasectomies, which I’ve been considering for my 6 month old Spoo, although I’m not sure at what age it should be done. He’s a beautiful boy, hope he recovers quickly!

Rest well and recover quickly, Misha!

May the recovery be swift! I’m sure the return to zooming runs will be a joyful event after he gets through the convalescent stage.

He is 20 months but it can be done at any age. I just waited because I wasn't certain about whether I wanted a vasectomy or neuter. But he recently started showing more interest in girls, and I don't want to take chances with him encountering bitches in season (people here can be idiots) so it seemed better to go through with it now.

What? You could start a new designer dog trend for insecure owners. Hypoallergenic dogs with the heart (and absence of common sense) to hunt lions.

Ridgepoos! 😂😂😂

I dont know what would scare me more about that mix. The conformation (remember mine will be a European mini so 35 cm max) or the temperament...

You are heartbreakingly handsome, Misha. Glad the procedure went well! Wishing you a speedy recovery so you can return to being a speedy poodle.
