Things that happen when the Vet's office is closed!

Poor Big Boy! This was a really deep cut. We have no idea what he cut it on but it was a very clean, straight cut...almost looking like it was cut with a knife...that was about 2 inches long and took about 8 stitches to close.

It didn't appear to bother him much. That was, until after recovery from the suturing. 

He has to wear a collar and is confined to the house. I honestly think that it has been harder on me than on him. 

He has not been happy with the collar. In fact, I took my eyes off of him for maybe 3 minutes outside and he got it off of himself and I looked for nearly 30 minutes and couldn't find it. He had pulled about 3 of the 7-8 sutures out. Using an Ace bandage (and a small sock) was all I could get to somewhat work to keep him from pulling out the remainder of them before Tony got home with a new collar. 

More tomorrow.
