Sassy Update #2
Well, our canine patient is back from the vet- we picked her up on Saturday. We get to give her three different medicines (at six, eight, and twelve-hour intervals) and she has to be restrained for the next several weeks to avoid reaggravating her injuries.
We also have to get her skin staples out in a few days and get the bandage on her foot changed weekly. Also, four weeks from now, we have to take her back for neurological tests on her hind foot.
As much as it's a hassle, it's nothing compared to the hell she went through, so it's worth it.
Right now, she looks like a little Frankenstein with her hair shaved, her skin staples on her hip and back, and her neon pink cast. She wouldn't win any beauty contests right now, that's for sure.
But she feels a lot better.
