 Luke had staples removed today
His operation was last Tuesday and today they removed his staples. He seems to feel better now that they are gone.
Tomorrow he starts Hydro Therapy - 2nd phase of therapy - they start him on the treadmill and then raise the water up - prob will only to have to bring it up 2-3 inches I guess. I got him an XXS swim vest if he needs it, and hope it isn't too big.
He is doing great - walking around and trying to put his front paws down. Was told in 12 weeks the bone would have replaced itself with scar tissue and then calcify over after a period of time- isn't the body wonderful.
Yesterday was his first day off pain meds and after his therapy he slept a lot.
He gets so excited when they bring him out to me, like okay Mom - I am ready to go home.
Will go back with him to therapy in a couple of days after he gets the treadmill down and try to do a video.
So proud of our little Luke - and glad we are in the recovery stage |
