And breathe 🧘
The dog is back home after a successful operation and is already eating and drinking. They managed to remove all the growth and its stem plus part of her ear canal. She’s hating the cone though and keeps trying to get it off. Got to take her back tomorrow morning for a check up.I can’t tell you how relieved I am. I was beyond worried this morning.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)12 -
That's good news - expensive but good. Hopefully she's sleeping it off now.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Aww that’s really good news they’ve managed to get it all. We gave up with a cone and went for a doughnut (Amazon) which worked the sameSealed pot challenge 822

Oh that's brilliant news. She's a plucky little dog. Completely understand how worried you were. The waiting for news is the worst - I almost forget to breathe when my pets are at the vets.3

Pleased for little one. My dog had to wear a cone for a week when he had a similar op. After a day he just settled wearing it and it wasn’t an issue thank goodness as I was so worried about how he would get on wearing it. Hope he has a peaceful night and has a good rest.xx:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.002
