Alisa has been neutered

When Alisa was at the age of 1 year and 2 months I decided to go for it and neuter her. It wasn't an easy decision; I felt a bit contradictory at the time and didn't want to rush. But after looking at all the pros and cons I came to the conclusion to go ahead.

After the surgery we avoided the park to keep Alisa calm with no temptations until everything had healed. Unfortunately she got a little infection at the stitches so we were away for some time. When we came back everyone was asking the same thing - "what happened with the dog?" :) She had just finished shedding her coat for the first time and with her belly shaven, which usually had surprisingly long hair, she looked so thin and so much smaller, just like a different dog :)

Here are two photos of Alisa from that period.
