Papa Montana's cut

I had made the much needed move of going to the veterinary clinic just two days ago and had finally got a 'slot' today for  the 'cut' that would never make Montana a papa again.
With a harem of six 'ladies' it was a real  heaven for this sole male hunk for the past four years or so.
He's been having so much 'fun' that there was never in a year that there was no new addition to his clan.
Mama Tay the alfa female is so fertile that she has to date never missed a single cycle without getting pregnant.
The only consolation for this mama would be that she had had single pup on many deliveries.
But beside her there are two other female, namely Sugar and JellyBean  that have also been 'busy'.  Not to forget  Chalaga who is also coming to that stage now .
I had  gone to the stage of caging Montana away from the females  since playing by sight on who and who was on heat has resulted in many unwanted 'accidents'.

This minor operation worries me most because Montana was an 'active' older dog and the fact that although he's been getting his heartworm tablets,  he has not been getting his yearly vaccination for the past few years .
Also this was to be my first neutering for a dog at the Goverment veterinary clinic. Past encounters with them were always on cats.
I have heard of stories too of how they can't revive the dogs once they have been sedated resulting the dog to die in the end many times .
This was the main reason why I did not opt to get it done there earlier after the only private vet I went to ceases to do anymore spaying or neutering.
...these are my prized babies...I don't want them dead!.

After made to 'puasa' for eighteen hours , tied and held down, he must be scared for his life

 After the opertion..... he looked so dead . And for a moment there I thought he was too until he started gasping for air.

Few minutes after regaining consciousness....still unable to control the tounge

Surprise surprise.... mingling around with his females few hours later...he's such a strong boy showing as if nothing happened. .. or missing ;)
