Hey Guys,
I was working from home to be with him today. My GF has been doing that all week, so I figure its about my turn! I dont usually work from home, but I think I got more done today than if I would have gone into work...
Gatsby is still weak and those pain pills really make him sleepy. We did manage a short walk today, and he has pooped 2x since he was attacked. We made it all the way down the street before he told me it was time to be picked up. Meanwhile, her sister enjoyed our usual long walk while I carried my wounded boy the rest of the way.
We had to buy him little baby socks to stop him from scratching. He has 3 giant incision areas that have staples, along with the puncture areas, plus one claw was ripped out. Those must itch a lot as they heal. His drainage tubes are not dripping nearly as much as when he first came home, and we have an appointment tomorrow to get them removed, YEAH!
The lady who owned the Corgi that attacked Gatsby called her insurance co, and they contacted me today. Even though the attack was not on their property, the liability insurance will still pay!!!! Believe me I am saving all these bills.
He also is playing the usual Yorkie game of not eating his kibbles when he is supposed to (his meds require to be given with food). We were melting some cheese on his kibbles and making a cheesy-yorkie stew for him. But that was messy and I did not like giving him all that cheese. So last night we got him some yummy canned food and he was all over that; I tried to mix in as much kibble as possible so he'd eat it without spitting it out and only going for the good stuff. Its going to be hard for him to transition back to plain kibbles, but for now, you have to do what you have to do
