Deuce is home again. He was a good boy at the clinic and super in the truck on the way home. He really seems to enjoy truck rides. Both drains are still in and will have to stay for 3 more days, but they are all nice and clean again. It should be a little easier to do now.

Dr. Rick was very impressed with how well Deuce is doing actually. I was suprised. I didn't think the wounds look good at all, but apparently there is no infection in them. He was shocked at how much Deuce is weightbearing already. Tonight he actually jumped up on me and didn't fall right over! He's very energetic tonight. The stitches have to stay in longer than usual. Due to the local of the wound there is alot of tension on the stitches and it will take a few days longer to heal up.

If Deuce won't let me flush the drains again, he will spend Thursday at the vet again! They will flush the drains, clean the wounds and probably pull the drains, but hopefully he will let me take care of all that.
