Get Well Soon, Flair

[dukedogsmom]

Kay, thanks for the sweet sig! I'll use it until his stitches get taken out in 2 weeks. The vet doesn't want him walking on it at all for a week because there's a risk of the stitches coming loose. Then, after a week, I take him out for about 15 min a day. Not to so much walk as just to graze on grass a little. I've got to give him two shots a day for a while. He's a real good boy. Doesn't even move when I'm giving them. His leg looks a little better but it's very swollen. Sort of looks like a Frankenstein leg with all those black stitches. I'll just be glad when we're both better. Taking care of him while I'm sick is not fun. Thanks for the well wishes, everyone.

I was just wondering the same thing. How's the poor guy doing?

That's some wound! Poor little man. I sure hope he is feeling much better now that he got it cleaned up and has mommy to care for him. I hope you feel better soon too Val. I hope we get a good update real soon. Good luck!

Thanks so much everyone! Last night he wasn't doing too well. Had a temperature and wasn't eating. But, one of the girls at the barn gave him a shot for the fever and also gave him an alcohol bath. He was also getting dehydrated because he wasn't drinking water. So, I had to go to the store and get some apple juice. We wet down his food and then put the apple juice in it and he loved it! So, now he's eating and drinking and the swelling has gone down a little. He was his old ornery self today. Pawing the ground getting impatient. I'm so glad he's feeling better. Was very worried about him. Thanks for everyone's concern.
