Mochi is back to her naughty self. Yes, there were quite a few scary moments for me for the first week. Her condition became better and better day after day. The only worry for me was to stop her from jumping around and playing too much with his brother, Kimchee.

Her incision was not done as well as expected - a little bit too tight (that's why it got irritated); however, she was still well on schedule for the surture removal. After the surture is removed, watch your baby a few more days to avoid her from licking the incision, also no bathing yet. I bathed Mochi 5 days after the surture is removed, just to be on the safe side.

I hope your baby recovers soon! Please PM me if you have any question, I will be more than happy to help you.

You have to wait for 14 days before the surture is removed. Within this 14 days, limit your baby's activities, like no jumping or running. If your baby does potty outside, use a leash and go outside with her, bring her back right away after it is done, don't let her run free outside. Also confine her in a smaller area such as kitchen, so she can walk around the smaller area instead of running.

Even though she acts normal and her surture looks healed, don't let her run too much since the inside might need longer time to heal.

Is she using a onesie? It is highly recommended rather than a e-collar. The onesie will not give a tunnel effect but will give more comfort while protecting her surture being chewed/licked.
