advice? Hello there,
I'm mama to Fyo, my 6 month old yorkie. He was neutered on Monday. Yesterday he somehow pulled one of his stitches out - his buster collar was too small. I took him to the vet first thing in the morning and the vet gave him a larger sized collar. He said it was ok that he pulled that one stitch out since he did two sets of stitches, an inner set and an outer set which is just for good measure. Today, Fyo somehow got his lower jaw caught in the collar and I freaked out because there was a little bit of blood on it. I took the collar off, washed off his face and went to the pet store to see if I could get him a t-shirt, like a onesie (the vet said I could also use those and just remove it when he needed to go to the bathroom to keep him from licking). When I got back, I put him on the couch and he licked his stitch for just a couple of seconds till I got him, and when I looked the last outside stitch was gone. What should I do? Sorry if this is posted in the wrong spot, I'm new here! |
