Just got out of the clinic and radar managed to break the 3rd screw in his leg so they are going back in today to fix it. Nervous that he is having surgery again. What are evryone thoughts on the acepromazine (sp) after surgery to keep him out of it

Poor Radar,:pray:praying for him-and you! Stress on both of you. I have used liquid Ace for a dog who was too nervous in the car,it worked very well. I have also used it for horses, over the years. Sending best wishes for you and Radar.

thru the stress & expense of this 2nd surgery ;(

Please don't blame yourself or Radar, things happen and go wrong, no fault!

Praying over Radar, his Vet & you today, let us know when it's over.

Bertha was prescribed that after her knee surgery to ensure she was sedated to decrease mobility. I HATED it and only gave it to her once maybe twice. She was over sedated and it scared me. Bertha was not overly active and recovered great without it.

Just heard from doc things went good and he got him all fixed up. I am not sure how I feel about the acepromazine but will have to do something to keep him down
