Oh my Westley does not like the collar at all!!! It's an inflatable soft cushiony one, that still keeps him from being able to lick and bite at his bum, but he is in the bathroom (I have him separated from the other for now) howling at the top of his little Yorkie lungs!!
He feels better than he did earlier. When I got home from petsmart, he was excited and running and jumping like his normal self. The spot on his bottom doesn't look as bad either and wasn't oozing as much. I tried to get him to do a warm bottom bath with Epsom salts but he wouldn't sit in the sink, so I just poured it over his bottom repeatedly. He had a fever earlier, but hasn't for the past few hours.
I'm still worried about this "open sore" on his bottom where they opened up the abscess to drain it. I hope it heals and doesn't cause any problems for him. Poor little guy. But he is doing better, thank God.
