Some pics of puppy!

I finally made time to upload a few pics of my puppy after her surgery. This first picture was taken when we finally got home from picking her up from the vet. She doesn't look too happy in this pic, maybe she is still doped up!? lol I bought her the little green frog in front of her as a "get well soon" gift, she seemed to like it but not as much as the stuffy my Mom bought her! :(

You can just barely see the cut they made on her knee, apparently there are no stitches there that need to be removed so they must all be inside stitches? You can also see another tiny little cut close to her tail where she had a skin tag and the vet removed free of charge for cosmetic reasons only! ;) There are stitches on that cut and they need to be removed in another week.

Her leg actually looked worse a couple days later, you could see some bruising on her knee that went from purple to brown and now it is a shade of yellow. And it was like she had razor burn on the inside of her leg? It looks much better now and I think it must feel better cause she is being playful again and wants us to throw the ball for her when we go outside. I think she even forgot herself cause she squatted down really fast and then started yelping, she just over did it a bit. She is starting to eat more now, which is good, but she still isn't eating quite as much as before the surgery!? She is also coughing more now too so we will have to let the vet know about that when we take her in to get the stitches removed.

poor rox I hope she's back to her 100% soon it must be frustrating for her and u.

I think you should revert to posting your weigh in 1 time a month. If its just frustrating you don't worry to much you'll get back on track, and if not you look great anyway!
