Saturday night, January 18th. I’ve been at the emergency vet with Jasper. The pup somehow snagged a nail and it ripped. The vet removed the nail and bandaged it. The cone is called an “Elizabethan Collar”: I’m disappointed it’s not made of lace.
When I got home, I tried to walk Jasper, but he balked. He had that vacant look of a disoriented animal. Maybe meds; maybe pain. I noticed Jasper showed no interest in the wound dressing, so I removed the collar and gave him food and water. Reenergized, Jasper went on a second walk - still short.
Now, sleep and healing.
[UPDATE: Jasper has been healing well. I removed the dressing Monday evening. Seriously well-done dressing. These emergency vets are expensive.]
