Pet Clinic Story

Today, Situ Yue is going to do a surgical operation - male dog castration, which is commonly known as male dog sterilization.

Well, to be more popular, it is to castrate the little male dog.

The operation dog is a one-year-old short-haired dachshund, which has reached sexual maturity. Due to the dog's own personality, it always likes to chase those little bitches who are in heat. So he did nothing but castrate him, once and for all.

Castration of male dogs is relatively simple, and Situ Yue usually performs it alone, but this time he decided to ask Zhou Shuyang to be his assistant.

Recently, this person has nothing to do. Some time ago, he would help Xiaoguang to bathe the dog, but later he always complained about his backache, so he let it go. He had to find something to do to kill his exuberant curiosity.

"Let me come with you?" Zhou Shuyang said with a look of shock, "I have no professional qualifications, and I don't know how to perform surgery."

Situ Yue said impatiently: "Who told you to have an operation? Just stand by and be a nurse's assistant and help me."

"How to start?"

"Pass the tools."

"........."

"I, I'm a little scared." Zhou Shuyang said, "It's so terrifying."

Situ Yue couldn't laugh or cry, and explained: "Sterilization of male dogs is to remove the testicles, there is no blood, don't be afraid."

Zhou Shuyang didn't believe it, and retorted: "But it was clearly shown in the TV series. When the eunuch was castrated, blood flowed out, and people might die."

Situ Yue: "..."

"That's because the eunuch needs to remove 'that' together with the scrotum, so there will be heavy bleeding." Situ Yue explained helplessly.

"Which one?"

"that."

"Which is that?"

Zhou Shuyan asked persistently, but Situ Yue suddenly lost all expression and just stared at him. Zhou Shuyang looked innocent, and Situ Yue could only sigh in his heart, and replied blankly: "Little bird."

"Hahaha!" Zhou Shuyang laughed wildly, and then said, "Oh, I see."

"Go and change!" Situ Yue said angrily.

According to the previous instructions, this sausage has been fasted for twelve hours. Situ Yue weighed it, injected the corresponding dose of general anesthetic sodium thiopental, and then entered the operating room to start preparations.

Zhou Shuyang put on the surgical gown, sterilized gloves, a mask, and a hat. Most of his face was covered, only handsome eyebrows and eyes were exposed. Situ Yue put on the surgical gown expressionlessly while staring at him.

This was the first time he saw Zhou Shuyang dressed like this. It had to be said that it was a bit seductive in uniform, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart. Then he breathed out a hot breath and began to introduce him to various equipment.

"Scalpel, surgical scissors, curved hemostatic forceps, and absorbable sutures." Situ Yue finished introducing them one by one, soaked alcohol cotton balls and iodophor cotton balls in the two trays, and said: "alcohol, iodophor cotton Balls, for disinfection."

"Of course I know this, sir." Zhou Shuyang said casually.

"I'll bring the surgery dog ​​over." Situ Yue said, "You wait here."

Zhou Shuyang nodded, and Situ Yue went out. At this time, the dachshund had entered a state of anesthesia, like a piece of noodles, limp in the arms of its owner.

He took the dachshund gently, and held its head carefully. When it was under general anesthesia, its muscles were in a state of infinite relaxation. If it did not protect its head, it would easily cause cervical spine injury.

Entering the operating room, Situ Yue put the dachshund away and began to hold it. The two of them each sided and bound the dog's limbs firmly with white cotton bandages, and the dachshund lay on its back on the operating table.

"It's like the execution on TV." Zhou Shuyang laughed.

Situ Yue didn't speak, took the pet clippers, and plucked all the hair from the dachshund's perineum, cleaned off the dog hair, covered it with a green surgical drape, and only exposed the surgical area - two scrotums.

Next, he first used a large amount of alcohol cotton balls to disinfect the scrotum area, then used iodophor cotton balls to disinfect one side, and finally operated the scalpel.

"Wait a minute." Zhou Shuyang said.

"What?" Situ Yue asked puzzled.

Zhou Shuyang: "Have you started eunuching?"

Situ Yue hummed, Zhou Shuyang said: "It's okay, let's start, I just have a mental preparation."

Situ Yue: "..."

Situ was too lazy to talk to him, and concentrated on starting the operation.

Standing on the left side of the dachshund, he squeezed one testis to the base of the scrotum, fixed it with his left hand, and carefully incised the upper skin with a knife in his right hand. The incision was about two centimeters, and then cut the meat membrane, the total sheath, and the testicle. The pill will be completely | naked.

Situ Yue squeezed the testicles out from the skin incision and pinched them in his hands. At this time, the testicles and the body were still connected by the spermatic cord (vas deferens), sheath, and cauda epididymis.

"Pass me the curved hemostat," he ordered.

Zhou Shuyang immediately handed it over, and Situ Yue bluntly separated the spermatic cord and the cauda epididymis with the hemostat, then cut the sheath tissue, clamped the sheath tube with the hemostat, and bluntly tore the caudal ligament of the epididymis, pulling out the spermatic cord , so that it is separated from the sheath tube.

In this way, only one spermatic cord remains in the testis to connect with the body.

Holding the curved hemostat, Situ Yue picked up the spermatic cord, flexibly rotated inward, then outward, and then pulled back, as if performing close-up magic. Before Zhou Shuyang could see clearly, the spermatic cord was tied into a beautiful knot.

Zhou Shuyang: "!!"

"Give me the surgical scissors." Situ Yue said, and Zhou Shuyang handed them to him. Situ Yue cut off the spermatic cord, and the stump of the spermatic cord automatically retracted into the sheath tube.

He stuffed the total sheath back into the scrotum, then sealed the incision of the scrotum with absorbable thread for several stitches, and finally disinfected it with povidone iodine.

Seeing that his testicles were still in the tray, Zhou Shuyang asked, "Is this all right?"

"There is one more." Situ Yue replied.

"Oh yes, I almost forgot." Zhou Shuyang said with a smile, "A dog also has two balls."

Situ Yue said indifferently: "Most animals have two, including humans."

Zhou Shuyang: "..."

"This is Goubao?" Zhou Shuyang curiously picked up the removed testicles of a dachshund, examined them carefully, and sighed, "So they are so small."

Situ Yue immediately raised his eyes and gave him a meaningful look. Zhou Shuyang said dissatisfiedly, "Why? Am I wrong?"

Situ Yue raised his eyebrows handsomely, without saying anything, he lowered his head and continued to operate.

Zhou Shuyang stared at the other party in a daze. Situ Yue, who was wearing a surgical gown, had an exuberant abstinence temperament, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his appearance of burying his head in the operation was very attractive, which made his heart skip a beat.

He suppressed the desire in his heart, changed the subject and said, "Why do dogs and cats need to be sterilized? They should be eunuched properly, it's a bit pitiful."

Hearing him say "dogs and cats", Situ Yue suddenly felt cute, and unconsciously smiled, and replied, "For their health—do you believe me?"

"Hmm..." Zhou Shuyang thought for a moment and said, "I don't believe it."

"Yes, many people don't believe it, but this is still the most popular saying." Situ Yue said. "Actually, one of the most important reasons is to avoid useless reproduction."

Zhou Shuyang: "What do you mean?"

Situ Yue said: "There is no need for many cats and dogs to breed. For example, the native dogs or native cats in the country can produce as many as six or seven pups in a litter, and these cubs have no other place except to keep them and give them away. .But the number of cubs kept and given away is limited after all, which will cause some cubs to be abandoned and eventually die.”

"Even if these cats and dogs are taken in and grow up smoothly, they may be abandoned by their owners in the end. Think about it, are the stray cats and dogs you see on the street basically dirt?"

"Well, indeed." Zhou Shuyang agreed.

Situ Yue continued: "A large number of cats and dogs will bring many problems, one of the most important is the spread of rabies, and it will also pollute the living environment, such as defecating everywhere, and a small number of stray animals will actively attack out of fear. Humanity."

"Cats have the largest number among stray animals. They are more likely to be abandoned and survive in the wild, and their reproduction speed is extremely fast. A female cat can give birth to about [-] to [-] cats in two years."

"When the stray cats come into collective estrus, they will gather in groups, fight for territory, fight with each other, and bark incessantly, and these all happen in the middle of the night, which is very disturbing to the people."

"So," said Situ Yue, "this is the real reason why sterilization is necessary."

"Then why tell the pet owner that it's for the pet's health?" Zhou Shuyang asked.

"Otherwise, what should I say?" Situ Yue asked rhetorically, "If you say that you want to prevent them from breeding, most people will feel that you are cruel and deprive their pets of the right to have babies."

"You have to know that people like to be substituting. They regard their pets as relatives, and they will put their own ideas and feelings on their pets. Naturally, they feel that castration is inhumane. They don't care about social problems. After all, it can't be solved by just a few people. , Self-sweeping is the code of conduct for most people."

"But if you say that sterilization has many benefits for pets, then after substitution, they will feel that they have done a meaningful thing for pets, and this thing can also bring benefits to themselves, so it is naturally easy to accept."

"Everything you say is a lie." Zhou Shuyang laughed.

"That can't be said in the same way." Situ Yue said, "Sterilization does have certain benefits to the body. For example, after a male dog is castrated, it will no longer be attracted by the smell of a female dog in heat, and will not think about food and drink, while a neutered female dog will avoid it. In his later years, he will suffer from various uterine diseases, because the sterilization operation of female dogs is usually to remove the uterus."

"What about the disadvantages?" Zhou Shuyang asked, "Can't there be no disadvantages at all? After all, there are fewer organs."

"The downside is..." Situ Yue thought about it and replied, "Because the removal of the sexual organs will cause the endocrine disorders of the pets, which will make them unhappy for a period of time."

"But the body has an adjustment mechanism. After this period passes, the pets will return to normal. However, due to endocrine disorders, they will become very fat in the future."

"It's only cute if it's fat." Zhou Shuyang laughed.

"Yes." Situ Yue said with a smile, "Actually, I have never understood this point, why human beings like fat animals, but require themselves to be as thin as possible."

"There's nothing hard to understand about this." Zhou Shuyang said seriously, "Because animals have hair, they are cute because of their hair. Naturally, the fatter you are, the more beautiful you are. If you have hair..."

Situ Yue immediately looked up at him, and Zhou Shuyang said awkwardly, "Uh... human hair is also considered hair, but if you shave your head, you should still be quite handsome."

"You're such a mess." Situ Yue said with a helpless smile.

"It's done!"

He threw the second testicle into the tray, and lifted the tray to Zhou Shuyang. Amber's eyes were full of playfulness, and she jokingly said, "Boss Zhou, Gou Bao, what do you want?"

"Get lost!" Zhou Shuyang cursed.

The author has something to say: small class of popular science:

1. If your own pet cats and dogs do not need to breed, you can consider doing sterilization surgery, especially for male pets. The operation is simple, low-cost, and once and for all;

2. Female cats and dogs, especially female dogs, are prone to reproductive diseases such as metritis and pyometra after the age of six. Seek immediate medical attention. In mild cases, transfusion therapy is required; in severe cases, surgery is required to remove the uterus;

3. Try not to allow pets to breed indiscriminately. Before preparing for breeding, make preparations for reasonable arrangement of cubs;
