The Amputation
It’s officially been 3 days since her amputation, and she’s been a champ! She quickly adjusted to walking on three legs, and pulls on the leash just as hard as she did before the amp. The worst part so far has been the occasional yelp when it hurts and minor bleeding every now (noticeably when she’s more active than she should be), however things have been looking good and she’s been doing great. I’ve had to keep a shirt over her to hide her stitches from her, and she does pretty well however I don’t trust her when I’m gone or sleeping so she’s forced to wear the E-collar. Hopefully the cancer is gone for good! Thanks everyone for all the support on this Tripawds site, it’s been incredibly therapeutic sharing her story and reading other people’s experiences!
