Dr G,

I am doing great... thanks for asking.. I feel so much more relieved now that I know he is doing great!!!! I do have one question though... where his "stuff" used to be is what looks like a small sac... I thought the vet was supposed to remove this??? I'm not sure what it is... is it similar to when a female has puppies and her milk sacs dry up and it takes time for the skin to tighten??? I know this is an odd question, but from the back it still looks like he has his "stuff"???

That will eventually get smaller and smaller. It will go away soon, don't worry, it's completely normal!

Smooches to your big boy! He looks so cute under the blankie! I'm glad it all worked out well, I know you are relieved. He'll be bouncing around in no time.

Cyber-sibes,

He started bouncing around again yesterday morning... he was back to his old self 110%. It was great, but at 630 in the morning, not so much. At that point, I wanted to call the vet and see what else we could do that involved a little anesthesia and drowsy time... lol...

I am glad he is doing well.
Having morning energy after sleeping all night is normal. He will probably crash later on this morning after once the rest wears off..

We went through the same thing with our Mack (11 month old English Bulldog) a few weeks ago. He has that same little "sac" you mentioned, but it is not nearly as big as it was before.

Thankfully, Mack didn't have to wear the e-collar at all. Poor little round thing couldn't have reached down there if he had to.
