Check his butt! The second time that Roxy had her re-surgery LP. She was crying ever so softly in the car on the way home. I started to cry too, thinking she is in pain. When I got home I checked her private areas and she had soft diareha like poop all over her butt area! I was SO MAD that they didn't clean her up at the hospital. She had stayed over 2 nights and 3 days. I don't know how long it was there, but once I cleaned her up, she had diaper rash, really bad. I had to go to CVS and buy Butt Paste. It took about 4-5 days for the dipaer rash to go away, but that's why she was crying

Do you have his area all ready? He really really needs to be contained, the recovery time is about 8 weeks. It was told to me that the first 2 weeks are the most critical. They should rest and only walk for a few mins. to do potty and that's it! Starting at week 3 and on, they are allowed more mins., but still very limited and no running, no jumping, no playing.

Get LOTS and LOTS of Chew Toys and Treats. Merrick Flossies will keep him occupied for hours
