[Maximo]

I am so sorry! Your poor puppy. I'm glad you took her to the vet. Wish they had given you a pain med to maybe help calm her and not want to scratch at her ear. If it is 24 hour emergency vet, I would call and ask.

For the cone -- it goes around the neck, so I'm sure what you mean about getting a leg out.

I'm sorry that I do not have any suggestions about what to do tonight. When Max was at the height of his eye problems and had to wear a cone/be protected from scratching, my dad and I took turns watching over him and sleeping.

In the future, no scissors near the ears! Was your husband trying to trim ear hair? Only use a trimmer, like a mustache trimmer, and always flat against the skin, never perpendicular to the edge of the skin. If your puppy is not very cooperative about sitting still, go very slowly. Always use hands to protect the face from scissors. Always work in bright light too.

Best wishes for your baby.
