Ruby 20 day post op check up

Ruby is healing nicely! I only saw her drip one drop this morning on the floor.    We went to visit her doctor tonight at the hospital to check her seepage and incision.  Instead of removing the staples/stiches she added three more and wants to keep them in until next Monday.   I’m very happy with the check up.  I really like this Vet.  She wants her to remain on Clavamox for another week.   I remembered to ask about the pink leash and color, which she brought back to us!   I told her that Ruby is an active dog and I’ve mostly kept her quiet and restricted to not aggravate the wound.  Dr. said she is able to run and play, no restrictions!   Seems like life is going to go back to normal now!  I’m really relieved.  It’s been a high speed chase the past two months trying to overcome cancer of the knee.  It happened out of nowhere and almost destroyed us, but the fight we have inside said NOT YET!

  1. YAAAAAAAAAY FOR RUBY!!!! OMD!!!! THIS IS SUCH A RELIEF!!!! AND RUBY IS HOME!!!!

    RUBY IS A ROCKSTAR!!! Such a fighter!! I do think Ruby might set a record for having stitches in for the longest time ever!! 🙂 s long as they do their job that’s all that matters!!

    While she still jas stitches, I wouldn’t let her play full out crazy and wild too much all at once just yet!!! More than she has been though, that’s for sure!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 Goodness knows though, we don’t want to do anything to disturb that incision site!

    And I know in my previous post I kept “encouraging” you ( in a not so subtle way) to get a second opinion.!! 🙂 I saw your response and fully understand your situation and certainly didn’t mean to butt in too strongly. Thank you for understanding that I was just trying to help 🙂 Ruby is very lucky to have you as her human!

    I’m so happy that these challenges are all behind you now!! You two have been through so much!!

    I think Ruby deserves some very special treats to celebrate her continued improvements!! Cheeseburgers and ice cream! At least the ice cream! 🙂 And save some for you too!

    So happy to see this great uodate!! 🙂

    Lots and lots of hugs!

    Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
