    Sophie with her cast

    This is Sophie with her compression bandage (its off now, but I haven't had a chance to take any new pictures) in her bed in her "master bath". Her expression is about the same--perplexed by this sudden turn of events...You might note, the chewing on the wood next to her head is her doing (puppy)...I leave the leash on her (not when she is confined by herself) because she can move pretty darned quickly when motivated...

    For those who have had dogs have surgery before--how much of a problem is it for them to lick the wound? I can't really tell how much she is licking the incision, and how much she is licking her leg, which I assume itches like crazy from the shaving. The wound itself looks good, clean, not red, stiches not visible. She is on keflex for a couple more days.
