    Kayleigh got her stitches out today. She was such a good girl! A long time away, we taught her "show me your belly" as a command. Came in handy today. Not sure how we would have convinced her to lay down and roll over otherwise. She had 30 or so stitches and 10 staples in her belly. I could have taken the stitches out at home, but I don't have a staple remover. It's free to have the vet techs do it anyway!

    In earlier years, Kayleigh would have had to been muzzled to have anything done to her. Today she laid down, showed off her belly and only even looked at the tech once or twice and that was on very tight stitches.

    She got a hamburger on the way home for her good behavior!

    Sounds like the hamburger was well deserved! Must be nice to have the stitches and staples out.

    You'd have had to <DRAG> me in and knock me out with drugs!

    30 + 10 ??? OMG!! ... Hurts to think about it!

    She should have received a STEAK with all the trimmings!

    GOOD Girl, Kayleigh!!

    Good Girl Kayleigh!!! No more chewing on non-doggie friendly items sweetie. But a hamburger, take that any day. Tell mom to give you a great big hug from me. I am so very glad you're ok.
