I'm heading back to my parents for a couple of weeks over Christmas and my mum has very kindly invited Hilary along too. She's been allocated an indoor room and my mum has already dug out our dog's giant crate and pen for her to stay in if required.
We have a brilliant vet near my parent's house so I was debating getting Hils spayed when we're there as she'll be just over 6 months then and I trust the vets in Essex more than taking a chance on some of the shifty looking vets in London.
Obviously I'm a bit concerned about moving her away from home and adding to potential distress with surgery but on the flipside I won't need to move her for sometime afterwards (even after i've come back to London if necessary - parents are very competent with animals) and I'm more confident in the quality of veterinary care she'll get near my parents. Do you reckon she'll be ok to have surgery/recuperate away from her 'territory'?
