| My 1st Yorkie Rescue & Bladder Surgery... Well...I just took my 1st Yorkie Rescue on Tuesday and this little guy had to have surgery on New Years Day for Bladder Stones. He just came home this afternoon and is doing really well for a Cystotomy plus being Neutered, too. The problem I'm having with him is the constant need to lick at the incision sites where he's already made a couple raw spots. The Vet suggested using a t-shirt but, I can't for the life of me figure out how I'm supposed to modify one to keep his groin & bootie area covered. Anyone out there have any good suggestions? Thanks in advance!

| Go to your Vet or to Petsmart and buy a canvas E-Collar, under 10 $$ depending on size!! They're flexible enough he'll be able to eat and drink. But, Not licking or nibbling @ his incision area!!! Good-Luck.... My Papillion wore one for 2 months till he healed enough to take it off...
