Bonnie had another visit with the vet this morning. Her back leg is now bandaged because the femoral artery was exposed and she's in a collar now. Thank goodness she didn't pull or bite it over the weekend! Some of her stitches were removed so we have drainage to deal with again. If there are no mishaps during the week we'll take her back on Friday to have the bandages changed. She'll be in a bandage for two weeks. She is feeling a LOT better and even wanted to go on a walk with the other dogs when we got home! |

I'm glad to hear that she is getting better! Someone dumped another beautiful dog here.... it's obvious she's been abused. :( At the moment Michael is scared of her, because she is so big. Kara is babying her, and making her want to be around people again... I know that Kara is going to become a vet.... or at least a vet's assistant. She has such a way with animals.......... I'm hoping that Michael will get used to her, and that we can keep her... but if we can't I will want to find her a really good home. I may be calling you if Michael can't adjust to having her around.... |

She hates the collar and it's rubbing one of the wounds on the back of her ear. I'm about to go up to the sewing room and see if I can make one that will be more comfortable. Tina, what kind of dog? |

Bonnie is back in the hospital. She started bleeding excessively during the night. They believe she has a massive hematoma in her chest. |

I called just before the vet's office closed and they said Bonnie is stable and heavily medicated (to keep her pain free and immobile). We'll know more tomorrow. |
