She’s Home!!
I just left Dr. Hollis’ office. My Roxy is on her way home, but I had to go back to work. However, when I saw her she was doing wonderfully! Wagging her tail and hopping around. They said she’s doing good at taking a couple stairs, so she won’t have any trouble with our porch. But the next thing is the doggy door. Any of you have a front leg amputee that uses a doggy door? I just can’t picture how that will work. I’m sure she’ll figure it out, but if any of you have seen this please let me know. Just to put my mind at ease…
Her incision looks so much better than I expected. I guess they used some kind of glue, so she only has 2 stitches!! The skin is loose and a little flabby, but she said that will tighten up. I was expecting tight skin and lots of stitches/staples. For now she’s wearing a t-shirt to try to cushion the shock on my son. He’s 9, but he has trouble with stuff like this. I’m hoping he’ll still treat her the same though.
