| Bandage stitches?? So my little Jack just had surgery today to remove a cyst from the back of his neck. It's a huge cut going up about 3 inches long. The shirt I have on him doesn't disrupt the area. I'm TERRIFIED he will pick the stitches when we r not watching him. Is there anything I can put on it? Like gauze or something???? I'm afraid he will open the wound

| Does the shirt cover it? Does he seem interested in picking at it at all? It really needs the air to heal so putting gauze on it I don't think would be a good idea.

| The shirt doesn't cover it at all. I thik my best bet is to put a shirt on him that's a little tight around the arms so they don't stretch all the way back. That seemed to make him not pick the cyst. My best idea is just to keep my girl dog Abby away from him so they don't rough around. My poor baby I'm so upset

| Jada had an incision like that between her shoulders last summer from a cyst removal. I kept t-shirs on her and my mom kept her for me the first few days, I was scared Bogie would hurt her just in playing. Prayers for a speedy recovery.
