Question Post operation care tips??

So, my sweet little baby boy Peyton has his surgery tomorrow (Thursday.) God willing it will all go well and he can come home on Friday.

This is a surgery to his left hind leg due to a fractured growth plate. He will be on crate rest for 6-8 weeks +/-. I know some of you have been through surgery with your pups. The surgeon will be giving me post op care instructions, but I would really like to hear from all of you as well. What worked for you, what didn't. Tips on giving pain meds, keeping comfortable, etc.

Needless to say I am worried sick for him, but am trying to cope...and being proactive works for me. So, any advice or tips would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
