What are your thoughts/experiences with gastropexy (the surgery to prevent bloat)? Looking into getting it for Loki at the recommendation of my vet.
I mentioned it to her as a possibility during our first visit a year ago, and she said she didn't know much about it but would call around. She called me later that day and said that she had called all of her vet buddies and they said it was a good idea.Any reason the vet recommended it?
If undescended testicle they may indeed have the abdomen open. Angus did. But the surgery for Gracie's gastroplexy was a tiny laproscopic incision. good luckMale dogs do not have the abdomen opened for neuter so it is really an additional surg not just a bit more work while in there as it is for females.
