He's home!
The vet said that he did very well with the anesthesia, and he was very alert when we picked him up. His poor little scrotum is very red and irritated, and the tech explained that it was because of the shaving. He has the disposable stitches, so we don't have to go back to have them removed.
He also had five remaining baby teeth removed. All four canines and one in the back on top.
The blood clotting test went perfectly, so he's back to normal now.
They didn't send home any pain medicine. When we asked, they said he wouldn't need it. However, when we got home he was whining and whimpering like I have never heard him before.
So, since it was close to five on Friday, I called and they said to come in for some pain medicine for him, and my husband just went to go back for it. He came home with it while I was typing this and it's called Deramaxx. (I have to go look that up.) He can have a half of a 25mg tablet once a day.
He is trying to lick the quite a bit, so I think I'm going to have to figure out how to modify the onesie Wylie's Mom sent him.
Wylie's Mom rocks by the way!! Thank you!! As a gift to Gizmo, she sent two baby onesies and some bully sticks. Gizmo thanks you!
That was so sweet!
Thank you everyone! He's curled up on his little blankie right beside me.
I am so glad this day is over.
