Lola had her stitches out today. Unfortunately, she still has the dreaded cone for another few days. I had asked if we could take it off if we watched her. The vet said okay, but we'd have to put it back on when she goes to bed.
We left it on and went for two walks and now it's dirty and kind of stinky. Jeff just took it off and I cleaned it. We will have to watch her closely before she goes to bed, and we have to put it back on.
We were supposed to keep her inside except for peeing. On Wednesday night, Lola made up her own mind. First. she waited for Jeff to join us on what I thought was just a trip out back. Then she refused to go to our yard area and started walking out to the street. She led us up the hill for two blocks. She was so happy to be on a normal walk. We kept it short, just in case.
The next two evenings we walked a little farther, although short of our normal late afternoon/evening walk. We also took her to Oyster Shell Park this morning for a loop after we went to the vet's. It makes us happy to see her happy.
