Laea's Big Day - #1

Laea went in for the first half of her surgeries today. Thor dropped her off around 8 this morning and picked her up about 6:30. She is not very happy right now. Her incision is about 2 feet long (I'll spare you the close up photo of that beauty) and runs from just under her 'armpit' to down next to one of her legs. She can walk on her own, but it's pretty tough for her. Right now she's wrapped in a body cast that she'll need to wear for the next couple of days -- she has drains & lots of gauze underneath that we'll have to change out too. Poor little puppy.


On the bright side -- the vets gave her a little good luck wrapping on her front paw with a heart where she had her IV. That's probably the best thing that happened to Laea all day.
