Chipper got the stitches and ear bandage off last Thursday. The cone has to stay on another week. It's healing up really nice and he hasn't tried to really get at it. I think most scratching at this point is due to the annoyance of the cone (his neck and head itch).

Ear a bit raw right after the stitches came out
