So I didn't think to ask, figured if it's appropriate I would have been given something. They were keeping him overnight but they found the testicle up by his skin not hiding deep in his Abdomen. So said was as easy as the descended one. Monday coming home..not good. But Tuesday he slept a little more than normal but wanted to play. Today would have never guessed he had surgery except for the scar.
We opted for laser surgery and follow up laser therapy afterwards. Keeps pain down, helps with swelling and heals way quicker. Our city vets in town don't have that option but our little country vet kind of insists saying it's so much better for them. He has no redness or swelling so happy with the outcome using laser. |
You're entirely missing everyone's point here in this thread bc you haven't stopped for a minute to listen to what we're saying here. You're not listening, you're just defending some rather poor vet care. This isn't about defending yourself - it's about this poor vulnerable little dog who is in your care. I wish you could get the part of it that has nothing to do w/ being defensive. This is about the PUPPY. Hope he continues to do okay.
