    Yeah dressing off. Stitches out the following week.

    :rotfl:


    Will they put a collar on him to stop him chewing the stiches?

    He must be doing well to have the dressings off so quickly.

    Well back from the vets with good news and bad news.

    Good news is that he was pleased with how the op went and it's healing really well.

    The bad news is it wasn't a toe infection but cancer! :undecided

    Came as a huge shock to be honest. He's had 4 lumps removed and none of them were malignant when the vet thought they might be yet we didn't even give a second thought to the toe being that!

    He said if it's gonna come back then it probably will in the next 3 months so we have to wait and see. He took as much of the toe off as he possibly could so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

    And he only did a poo in there. Thats the fourth time he's done one inside since his op! :eek: :rotfl:

    He seemed pleased that he'd got everything but it really is just a waiting game. :undecided

    It could spread elsewhere to his body so we've just got to be extra vigilant.

    But he seems happier in himself. Alot more sprightly than he's been in a long while so hopefully when he's had the stitches out and along with his jabs for his arthritis he's had he'll be a bit more active. :)

    Yeah I mean there is nothing more we can do now so I'll try not to worry about it. At least he isn't in any pain anymore as it must've been hurting him.

    Just got to try and house train him again now the dirty little sod! :rotfl:

    It hasn't processed yet! ;)

    Want to make sure it's come off first in case I've paid it into someone elses account! :rotfl:


    ooo - mine please! fingers crossed for you that the doc has found the cancer on time and woofer will be ok, sounds like he's perking up already though. and I'm sure the accidents will cease once he's settled down again. x
