My poor baby
As you may or may not know, I have a puppy now. He is so cute and sweet, and I feel horrible for what I've just done: dropped him at the vet to get neutered.
I know responsible pet owners have to fix their pets so there aren't strays getting put down all the time, but it's still sad when the little animals wake up all happy and frisky and then get hauled off to the vet for that to happen. He'll probably never trust me again.

He'll trust you again as soon as you put some pics of him on your blog. I wanna see the puppy!
I waited four years to get my cat spayed. That's four years of pent-up guilt. At least you'll have it over with. I thought that spaying my cat would somehow change her make-up and personality, but within a couple days, she was the same old grouch she'd always been. If she resents me, I can't tell: she was always a little mean.
You are back at your blog. Sounds like your puppy is doing fine!
Hi Ginger--
Yay! How exciting! I'm happy for you and your new pup! I'm just a random stranger who's been reading your blog for years---but I'm so glad you neutered your new puppy, and just had to say so. Can't wait to see photos!
