I read on another forum that Chihuahuas often have reactions to the anesthetics used when they are being spayed/neutered. The people on that forum were saying you should have your Chi tested before the actual surgery to ensure there won't be any adverse reactions. Have you heard of this? My vet didn't mention it and Bosco gets neutered next month. Should I be concerned?

Oh this is the first I've heard of this!
I need to know too because Sandy will be 6 months old next week and she will be getting spayed soon.

I have heard that chi's need a CVO anethesia....make sure you ask. I never did when Kemo got done and he was fine, so maybe they used that but I will ask next time!!! It was posted Anna here on an old old thread, I dont have time to look right now... :wave:
