Very good news, glad everything went so well for you and her.
Oh Star, you are a very loved lady! Only ONE tooth out, rather than 6, whoopee! Can't wait to see your dazzling white smile, te hee.
Pat, glad to hear such great news. Did they say anything about putting a sock on the paw to keep her from licking it? You and JoJoe must be thrilled to have THAT behind you. Hooray!
Good news, Star is home again. :) My daughter's dog had a broken
molar and a lump (from her paw) removed just last week. She was not
a happy camper.I hope Star just starts to feel better quickly.Poor baby. :(
Hmmm, must have been contageous ;)Quote:

The vet said to give her small amounts or she might throw up. She had a trachea tube during the surgery, they said her throat is probably a little sore. Don't need any more irritation from something going the wrong direction! I will snap a pic of her dazzling white smile as soon a she starts smiling again! :D
Welcome Home, "Smiley"! :)Quote:

Will the Bite-Not straight-jacket manage to keep her mouth away from the paw?
I fear the Mighty Tongue will manage to find that paw in minutes if some form
of isolation
or covering isn't employed (or you Duct Tape her mouth shut! :p )
Good Luck!
Welcome home Star!! Glad things went well!!
LOL! I sure hope we don't have to resort to duct tape! I'm hoping the Bite Not & sled bootie will hold off that mighty tongue overnight. He did not put in any stitches, and said not to wrap it up so it gets air. She's pretty well konked out on the couch right now, I guess we'll deal with tomorrow, tomorrow.Quote:

Glad to hear Star's teeth cleaning and removal went okay. Is the lump they removed from her paw being sent in to have it checked? Isn't Dr. Freeman the greatest. Jack went in to have his stitches out this afternoon - I forgot that Star was there. All Jack's little "holes" are mending great.
Welcome home Star!! We hope you wake up tomorrow feeling all better :D
Diana, I'm so glad to hear Jack is on the mend! Yes, we like Dr. Freeman very much. :p
I asked if the lump was sent out, and the vet tech told me not in this case, he thinks it was a corn or something like that. After is got all red & swollen 2 weeks ago, it shrank back down to almost nothing, smaller than it's been for several years. I'm glad they removed it, as it was really bothering her when it was swollen. I looked at the site tonight, it's a little hole in her pad. It looks wet, but it's not oozing. I'll keep checking it.
It was a nice surprise that the bill was quite a bit lower than I expected! I still have enough left to send Sherman in to have his toofies cleaned, too!
Yippee!!
Glad to hear she's home and that the bill was lower than expected!!
Isn't that the best thing in the world?!?! :D
Wishing her a speedy recovery!!
Oh Goodie! :rolleyes:Quote:
