My Son Gareth has a lovely Pug  she is his baby her name is Pat she is a very spoiled girl aged  two.
We are her main carers also she is with us  most of the time as Gareth lives at home but mainly  out working etc.. our dilemma is we have been chatting to him about having her spayed as although she is a  nicely bred girl he has no intentions of breeding from her........... now after him finally  saying yes he feels its a good idea as she is  also really bleeding very  heavily when in season  and loves to sit on our knee ;O  and also we have our other dogs as well  anyway just spoke to Vets to book her in and have been told there is a  high risk invloved due to her breathing etc.. with the aneasthetic  she isnt  a dog who has problems breathing but still now I am worried because sttrictly she isnt our dog are we taking a big risk we all love her so much she is sa character.some of you will know my main breed is labradors  :)
Any advice please ?

Hi Mattie go to a vet who is used to anesthetizing Pugs we have found this to be important there is one in Chadderton Manchester who we can recommend they are very experienced with Pugs

I do agree make sure your vet is familair with the brack breeds and I believe there is 2 different kinds of anastheitc, sorry can't remember which one my vet used, I know she said its easier to wake them up faster and safer for the brack breeds.
