Update:
Waffles (YES, she is small...mini. american eskimo, 16 lbs.) has not thrown up since early this morning. The vet that I took her to did not give me anything, no medication what-so-ever. They didn't even tell me what to do with her when I got her home. I should have asked I know but, I guess my mind was somewhere else....just wanted to get my baby back. The only thing she has eaten in 2 days is a few morsels of food and a few small biscuit treats. I will try the soft canned food. She has gone potty outside but it seems to take awhile. Sometimes when she gets up from laying on the floor for awhile she tends to whine but, it doesn't last long. I'm trying my best to care for her, keeping an eye on her while she's outside. When she's inside however, all she wants to do is lay down by the patio doors and sleep. (it seems like she wants to hide as well) She doesn't like to move around too much I don't think. I haven't noticed any swelling or redness around her stitches but, she likes to lick them and I was advised against having her do that. I'm just not sure how to stop it. I work during the day so I can't stop her then. When I am at home she still wants to lick herself and I thought that was ok...that they heal themselves this way?!
That's all for now....we'll see what tommorrow brings.
Thank you for the advise and concerns!!!
