Hi all.
Myself and my family are totally new to owning a dog. I bought a patterdale staffy cross and brought her home yesterday. She is 2.
She settled lovely yesterday although she was a bit excited. However..
She has not been microchipped. Easy enough to sort, now the next 2 things:
- I am assured she has been spayed by her last owner (he had to give her up as he lives alone and has taken on a promotion where he will be out of the house more than 12 hours a day and it isn’t fair on her)... but how can we be sure she has been spayed??? I can’t get a good enough look at her because she always wants to play.
- Vaccinations. I haven’t been given any paperwork for her vaccines. He got her when she was one year old and has had her for a year. I want to make sure shes up to date and not at risk of getting poorly. Will the vets be able to advise?
I’m panicking now. I don’t want to be causing her harm or putting her at risk. :( she seems healthy enough, and very happy. I just want to make sure.
