Just got back from picking up Sony from the vet. she is doing very well. does not seem in too much pain but she is on some good meds for it. and we can use cold packs to help with sweilling. she was sleeping in my car so nicely I decided to take her with me when I went to pick something up from a friend. we then stopped for ice cream on the way back. I had a crate all ready in the living room. where she can see us.
I was bad and took the E collar off her and only caught her once trying to lick the incision she stopped when I told her to and hasn't bothered it since. she is much happier now without it.
so for the rest of today and tomorrow she will go out side to potty a few times a day and then back in her crate. on Friday I can start some ROM exercises to help with the healing .
for the ROM. I can use some warmth before ROM and cold after. I have also been advised to do some massage on her to help with circulation.
so the worst part is over Now comes the hard part of recovery and rehab.
