Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Glad he's doing better as well!

Yea he's all the way back to normal
I never made a thread about it. I talked about it on the hijack. His surgery was last Thursday. I'll take out his sutures at home on Sunday and then he's getting a BATH!! He still smells like vomit lol poor guy.

Great to hear he's doing better! I read the hijack and you were so nervous! Glad it's all done with though.
I had no idea you could take out sutures. I thought they were supposed to dissolve on their own lol. I know you work in the vet field though, so you have tons more expertise than I do.

Lol yea dissolvable sutures were used on his skin. We take them out after 10 days because the skin at that point is healed and the sutures tend to irritate the skin and cause rashes and infections. It can take weeks for them to dissolve on their own And thank you! I so relieved that he's well and getting hyper again lol
