They'll just start to induce the dog with propoflo which puts them to sleep so that they can put a trachea tube down their throat and hook the dog up to isofluorine gas.

internal stitches and external stitches are both good. i don't recommend getting staples or cauterizing the incision. its not pleasent for them.
Hi! Do you know why the vets didn't like it? Is propoflo a common drug used to induce sleep? I think I prefer the internal stitches. Thanks for the info.
