zayda_asher Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Went for a walk round the block last night to get her to toilet... and she wanted to keep going! This morning she is all back to bouncy normal... wanted to play with Asher (which we had to be careful of for her stitches in her side) and had a game of fetch with Glen... Yay!

Tru Borders Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Went for a walk round the block last night to get her to toilet... and she wanted to keep going! This morning she is all back to bouncy normal... wanted to play with Asher (which we had to be careful of for her stitches in her side) and had a game of fetch with Glen... Yay! Thats great news Z_A!!!! Im stoked for you all! The stitches are a worry, especially when our fav games involve biting!! Ours were at it on day 2 but we didnt have any probs Its a good feeling when they are back to themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zayda_asher Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) Yeah, I'm not too worried about her mouth, but she also has stitches in her side where she had a lump removed... She tuckered out by the end of the day and got a bit woosy in the evening again, so maybe still getting rid of the drugs, or a bit of pain (or both)... she's back up again today so nothing to worry about... I just have too keep her side in good condition now... stop her licking, as she gets itchy with the shaved fur and this aggravates her allergies... so she's been a bit licky, but easy to stop.

luvsdogs Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Neat stitches your vet does. April had a cyst removed when she was 3. She pulled a stitch out & had to have a staple put in. They then sold me an elizabethan collar. Didn't mention it when I picked her up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zayda_asher Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Neat stitches your vet does. Thanks Zayda is a bit of a scaredy dog and doesn't like the Elizabethan collars... She's been good with her stitches, and I'll just dress it when I'm not here, in case it bugs her (I work from home, so am only out to see clients). Weird your vet didn't mention the collars with the op :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvsdogs Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 They do now. Had Tilba spayed a month ago & the collar was part of the deal. Which she had to wear most of the time as she got a bad rash from the shave & wouldn't stop licking it when the collar was off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zayda_asher Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I popped and old tank top on Zayda and tied a knot in the back when we had her done years ago.. she got a bad yeast infection and was very itchy and we couldn't bath her because of the stitches... Works well if your dog freaks with the collar :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvsdogs Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I had heard of that b4 getting her done but forgot about it when the time came. When I picked her up after her op the nurse had the e collar in her hand ready to put on & said Tilba didn't like it one bit. She was freaky with it on while getting over the anasetic but managed it quite well in the ensuing days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
