"Don't Forget To Have Your Dog.....Spayed or Neutered"

    Taken from a segment of "Family Guy"

The famous last words ( Title Subject ) from Bob Barker after each taping of The Price Is Right.  Bob Barker, for many, many years was the spokes person for the ASPCA and he would always remind us to have your dog or cat spayed or neutered to control the pet population.  Now it's time for my Maisy to go under the knife.

Maisy spent a few hours at Cheeky Dog yesterday and one of the staff members mentioned that she got into some small scuffles with other dogs, male dogs that is.  Apparently, some of the male dogs has taken a fancy to Maisy.  Maisy just turned 7 mos. old, and I've been waiting for her to go into heat, so she can get spayed.  Dr. Neuman, Maisys' Vet, mentioned that Boxers usually go into heat 'round 9 mos. of age, but it seems as if, she has reached puberty a wee bit early.  So in a week, Maisy will be having her surgery, she will be at the vet all day, I hope it will all go as planned.  Please wish her luck, cards and balloons will not be

necessary.  I dread to see Maisy with a Lampshade around her neck, luckily she will not have to wear one.

She will not know what will be going on, but with the anesthesia, she will be in a deep sleep, and have no idea what is going on with her.  I hope her puppy mentality won't disappear.

Thanks Bob, for controlling the population.
