SHAKA'S SPAY DAY

It was finally Shaka's day to get spayed so we were up and out bright and early to the SPCA spay/neuter center. I actually love taking Shaka anywhere that there might be reactive dogs because she is just so so cool. This morning was no exception. The waiting room was chock full of yapping small dogs, several super excited puppies, an over-protective german shepherd, another pit bull running in place on the slippery floor and an especially whiny labradoodle type thing. We walked in, loose leash in hand and Shaka of course acted as if they were completely not there. She didn't shy away and or even look over, she was just stone cold cool. However, she happily greeted the few friendly ones like a couple of the puppies. So as we waited, amidst the chaos, this was Shaka's take on the situation...

Soon I handed her over and headed home to find this wait for me...

And we spent the rest of the day doing things like this...

When I went to pick up Shaka, the vet-tech brought her out and told me she was the calmest and easiest of any dog, not just pit bull, they have ever had in there. I was not surprised, but proud none-the-less of my sweet Honeybee. They fitted her with the super embarrassing cone-head and we were on our way. Well, first she plowed her way right into the curb on route to the car:/

The cats were pretty curious about her new attachment...

I stuffed her pain meds in some canned cat food (she did not want to eat anything else.) And then she was ready for a nap. It became apparent that it would be too hard for her to get cozy in the cone-head so I relieved her of her misery.

That was pretty much it for the night. All-in-all it was a pretty boring day for Norman & Kaya and a pretty miserable day for Shaka, no complaints from Gina. But the good news is that there will be no babies for this beauty and she is ready to go to her new home for good!
