Are they eating a little bit now? Sorry for so many questions , I am curious to know what to expect with my dogs. |
She used stitches that dissolve and then some kind of glue on the outside. The stitches don't have to be removed. I do have to watch them and they have to be separated at night and they can't run and romp during the day. Bless their hearts, they want to play so badly. They did do blood work before and everything was fine. They are eating very well now. I did have a couple of problems though. Gracie was completely house broken and she reverted back to peeing everywhere. We found out that she has a UTI from the procedure, which they said is not uncommon, but she is on meds for that and doing much better. Bella, on the other hand, has done better with her house training. It's like they have switched rolls! I was a bundle of nerves, but everything has worked out well. I will be happy when they are completely healed so they can get back to playing and being happy puppies again.
