FML! Why can't anything ever go smoothly? But I digress... So Beans was spayed yesterday, she's a 17 week old DLH. When she came home last night she was really aggressive acting from either the pain or the anesthesia. Poor baby, I felt so sorry for her. The vet said it was most likely the anesthesia because the pain shots they use last for 24 hours. I would have just left her alone, the problem is she kept trying to lick the area of her surgery. This is obviously a big no no.
I had to e-collar her which was a nightmare for her (and me) in the state she was in. I kept it on her all night and kept switching out warm blankets from the dryer for her to sleep on.
She was better this morning but was still trying to lick the incision so she got collared again. She's hung out with me all day today and I'll remove it when she's in my lap, or on the couch next to me. The problem is the second take my eyes off her she's licks at her incision like it's going out of style.
She's not supposed to get wet for 7 days. That includes bathing. Is this gonna be my life for the next week?
