If their info is correct her name is Inca and she's a Bull Terrier.

How are your dog's doing TSPoet?

Compared to Inca, they've don't have any problem at all!

Murphy was pretty thrown by the anesthesia. Poor dog, every time he quite shivering I poked him because I thought he'd died! Finn was OK by the next morning. They are both OK now - we had a nice 5 mile walk and ran into no critters on it at all, very nice.
If this ever happens again, I'm going to do the same thing - I don't think I could bare to pull the quills out myself and there is only 1 other person besides me that can touch Murphy, so I'd be dependent on her holding him.

thanks for all the replies.
I don't think I'll ever get the picture of that poor quill-infested head of Inca's out of my head!
