flipping vets

[meggit]

took buddy today to have him castrated and as hes a raw feed dog i took up a frozen raw chicken breast for him to have after the op, oh the fuss from the people up there was unbelievable, had to explain that hes fine loves his diet is fit healthy and happy no hes not suffering from a lack of vitamins and the usual rigmarole of yes uncooked chicken wings are fine for him to eat lets face it hes been on it for over 2 years now and is fine so whats the problem. Then to top it all if anyone remembers the fuss and bother i went through with my OH when i first started buddy on the raw food diet and the positive training methods well now believe it or not it was all OH's idea YEA RIGHT

At least you've had a chance to educate the vet and other staff!

I'm surprised he needs food to be taken in, though - when I brought Jasper home, a few hours after the op, he was still a bit woozy and just needed a light meal later on in the evening. Although I'm a raw fan, I'd also wonder whether bones are a good idea as I think the anaesthetic can affect digestion.

Anyway - how is the lad doing?
