Surgery, what surgery??

[Glacier]

Anvik, four days post surgery:

"What are you talking about Mom? I feel fine, I want to run!"

"Running is what I do best! I'm not letting a few stitches stop me! Plus I"m getting used to being around all these other dogs."

"Why does Heyoka get this big house? I like it! I want one like this too!"

[Giselle]

Anvik is so gorgeous!! Talk about eye candy! Looks like those few stitches can't phase him. What a beautiful dog!

[cyber-sibes]

wow, that's quite a zipper job! Anvik looks no worse for the wear - what a great smile he's got! p.S. - I vote that Anvik gets his own big house, too!

[Ginger's Mom]

Oh my, you certainly can't keep a good (and handsome) man down. But you really do have to be careful, Anvik (of both the stitches and of Heyoka, if he catches you in his house).

That's great that he's recovering so quickly! He's a beautiful dog

[Muddy4paws]

You brave boy! My dogs would be playing on it so bad so make the most of it!

I'm glad to see that Anvik is doing well!
I see snow on the ground, wish we had some too!

Wow, Anvik doesn't even have to wear that jacket!!!! He's out and about as though nothing ever happened!!!! That's great!!!!

But I can see that he certainly went through some surgery alright

I'm so glad that you posted a picture of him for us, I've had him on my mind so often!!!!! What a Wonderul dog!!!!!

He still wears the jacket at night or when I can't watch him. He's been really good about leaving the stitches alone though.

I'm so happy to see Anvik back to his happy self so soon. I'd want the big house too!

[Cinder & Smoke]

The Big "X" sure does mark the spot!

WHATTA Zipper!

Glad he's feelin so good!

[ramanth]

Great to see you recovering well Annie!

I'm sorry I was unable to respond to your other thread but he's been in my thoughts. Glad to hear he's doing so well. I hope he stays calm enough that he doesn't re-injure himself. lol

Thanks, he was back at the vet yesterday. I thought he had an infection, but my vet assures me it's just a normal collection of post-surgical fluids. Apparently it would be reabsorbed, but if not, he would need a drain put in. Anvik decided to take care of it himself yesterday. He partially popped a stitch, nothing major, just a tiny hole. All the fluid drained on it's own! I think he did it on purpose as he hasn't touched the stitches since! I'm grateful to him for that actually--means he avoids more surgery and I don't have to flush a drain for a week! I hate wound drains!
