No more Nuggets

Sailor got fixed on Monday. The vet recommended that he have the procedure before he turns 50 lbs. Sailor weighs in at 45 lbs and is 3 1/2 months old. After we dropped him off, heard rumours that if he gets fixed before 6 months he will have a small head. worried all day. Don't want dog with pin head and giant body. Vet dispels rumours. We pick him up during snowstorm (another one) and he is doing well. He is supposed to not play or anything for 10 days (good luck with that). He slept most of evening and this morning was a little chaos trying to get out of the house. Nic looked in on him at 11 am and Randall at 2:30. I will be home by 5:30. Todd will work home tomorrow and Friday.
We got his pedigree and AKC papers. Felt a bit sad that his bloodline will end and that he won't reproduce. His papers say that his great-grandfather is also his father - what? Is that okay to do? Some of his relatives are dogs like "Nikita from the Garden" and "Maybelline Mai Hall". He's just "Sailor from the Lake" we guess.
After his 10 days we will take him to puppy pre-school a couple of days a week so he can play and socialize.
