Dora spayed, Tuff eats (updates from Imm’s Shelter)

Further updates from Judy:

Dora has been spayed now. The vet decided to do it since she was knocked out with the dart. Good call.

Tuff has started eating, which is a good sign. Yesterday, he looked so pale, Imm thought he wouldn’t even survive. We hope he pulls through. Rescued in the nick of time!

Phantom turned out to be a cryptorchid (only one visible testicle, the other being undescended). So far, he does not present with TVT, which is good.

We have encountered such dogs before and our vets always recommend surgery to remove the undescended testicle(s).
