He's been through a LOT, poor guy! Thank goodness you are such a good mom and you got him the help he needed!

I am happy Tobi is well on his way to a full recovery!

Please give him some pats from me

Bless his little heart! I'm glad he's doing better!!!

My poodle (A small toy poodle...He's about as small as Regan.) chewed his stitches out when he got fixed. We called the vet and took him in again and they were so suprised...It turns out he did a wonderful job of taking them out himself and he was going to be fine. xD

I'm so glad Tobi's stitches are healing. Has Tobi ever eaten canned dog food? Beau has never had canned dog food, so he thinks the UD canned is a treat.lol I also have a female yorkie, Sophie. Do you have any other dogs or is Tobi your only one? I also have to give Sophie the UD food because they have always eaten together and out of the same bowl. When she sees me get the canned food out, she starts turning around in cirlces and gets all excitd. My vet said that it would be fine for her because the UD has all the vitamins and minerals that she needs.

The only can food tobi will eat so far is Mighty dog. They have a couple of versions that is actual real beef and chicken in a gravy. He won't eat it cold it has to be a touch warm and he will only eat it a couple days then his nose goes up. Tobi is my only dog. But I also have a 75 gal. fresh water tank full of african cichlids. Very cool colors and aggressive little things.
I'm excited for Tobi. Friday will be his belated christmas. Once we get home from removing his stitches I'm going to give him a bath and then let him open all his christmas gifts.. Lots of toys!!! He'll be in doggie heaven.
I don't wrap gifts and put them under the tree anymore due to on Tobi's first christmas I bought him alot of toys and wrapped them and then on Christmas day let him open them up. He had a blast. Well then the following year he had to of remembered that because I had wrapped a bunch of things for my other relatives and set them under the tree. About 15 gifts. Well my husband and I had an errand to run and was only gone 20 min. When I got home I could not believe it. That little guy had opened all the gifts under the tree. There was wrapping paper everywhere and he was lying on the sweater I had bought for my mother. Needless to say lesson well learned on my part. No more gifts under tree:-)
He really gets a kick out of opening them though...

I hope Tobi likes his new diet!! Yikes!! The Christmas present incident is hilarious.

I don't blame you for not wrapping them anymore. I hope Tobi has a great time tomorrow when he gets home. I would love to see a picture of him. Maybe you can post one of him. I am new to YT and don't know how to post pics yet. Please keep me posted on his vet appt. I'll be anxiously waiting.

How is Tobi this evening? Did he get his stitches out? He must be having a wonderful belated Christmas. Just checking on him.

Tobi done real well at the vets. His stitches are out and they say it looks good to them but it looks a little jagged to me. So I'm gonna keep my eye on it. He was so happy to get that cone off his head. Got him home and gave him a quick bath which he did not enjoy. He usually goes to the groomers monthly so I'll have to get him in there in about 2wks.
He is certainly having to pee alot but I suppose thats normal. In all fairness he has been drinking alot as well. The vet has some special hills diet that he ordered for me and it'll come in on Monday.
Tobi is having a blast with all his new toys. Driving me crazy with them. I shouldn't of bought such sqeeky and noisey toys. But its so good to see him somewhat normal again. He is starting to look like my little boy again. Once I figure out the pics on this I will post his picture, after he gets groomed:-)
So is Beau back regular with his urinating? Does he still go often? Like every 20-30 mins? I'm sure its probably nothing. He probably can't hold as much with his bladder now. What do you think?

yorkie2 · 12-31-2005, 08:05 AM

I'm so glad everything went well at the vet. I can imagine how happy Tobi must have been to get the cone off.

Yes, Beau had urinary urgency for about 2-3 weeks after surg. Dr. M. said anytime they have bladder surg, that would happen. He is back to normal now and I am amazed at how long he can hold his bladder now. Before his surg, he could never make it all night without having to go potty. Now, he sleeps thru the night and I can't believe it. Just hang in there, Tobi will be just fine shortly. Thanks for the update!!
