Well it’s been a week since Buddy’s surgery and I’m happy to say he’s doing great!! He’s been getting around really well. He’s a wiz on the stairs and loves hanging out at the park with all of his neighborhood friends.
We’ve had his incision checked twice and it’s healing really well and looks great. They drained a little bit of fluid, but nothing out of the ordinary. Buddy will get his staples removed on Friday!
We bought a ramp to get him in and out of the car. He’s not a huge fan, a bit apprehensive, but using cheese helped to get him in and out. I think he’s tired of daddy picking him up so he actually hopped into the car on his own for the first time yesterday. We’ve also noticed some skin irritation from the harness under his lower belly (nowhere near the incision). I think this is probably because it’s a little too tight when he lays down.
Other than how well he’s progressing, Buddy is also very excited that the Giants have made it to the post season! GO GIANTS!
Hopefully we’ll get to take him to his favorite spot – Crissy Field – really soon!!
At a boy Buddy! He is an amazing dog with amazing parents! The journey will continue and so good to hear how well he is doing getting in the car….amazing. xoxo
