A few days ago I posted that I thought his neuter was infected. I took him in to the vet, and yes, there was a little infection there. The vet gave me some antibiotics and told me to have him take 1ml twice per day. Emmett does not like the antibiotic at all, and it has been very difficult forcing him to take it. However, the infection is looking a little better.

As for his "tumor" surgery, we got the stitches off the wound site yesterday. Everything healed properly.

Test results: The growth was not a tumor, nor a cyst. It was some sort of skin infection that took three sentences to describe. Apparently it was really nasty. I was too baffled to ask the vet if that would have gone away on its own...

So, the surgeries totaled $690, the initial visit was $40, the antibiotic was $30, and then his shots on Monday were $60. In a little over two weeks I have spent $820 at the vet.

So, I have sold my Wii and DSi and various other things so I can eat. Haha, I hope that Emmett knows how much I love him.

I'm glad that all is well with Emmett. I know that Emmett know's how very much you love him. You are a great Yorkie Mom to put his needs first.
I myself know all too well about spending lot's of money at the Vet.
