dog in post op

the dog’s dreaded cone is off I am keeping a close eye out Attempting to keep him from licking his wounds. Post op surgery is less fun than surgery of course neither is a carnival my newly neutered dog is supposed to wear the cone for a week or ten days He had surgery forty-six hours ago He has taken the cone off three times It causes him lots of stress We have ordered an inflatable cone It will be here tomorrow In the meantime I am urging him to rest and sleep as he licks his wounds, ignoring my pleas for him to stop
