Reason #189 My Neighbors Think I am Insane
Tillie had surgery on her back this week to remove a chronically inflammed cyst. She has a large panel on the on side of her back shaved with probably a 3-4 inch incision. When I picked her up from the vet they sent me home with orders to not let her run or jump and not to get her sutures wet. Well of course it is raining this morning. I threw on a fleese and grabbed an umbrella heading out the door and trying my best to keep the umbrella over the dog so that her sutures don’t get wet. So here I am walking the dog when an umbrella keeping her dry. :P The HOA might be trying to have me committed soon.

Why didn’t you just put a sweater/jacket on her? That would have been easier…

I wish I could have done that, but with the location of her sutures I knew it was going to hurt her if I put anything on her back. Not to mention once you put something on her she freezes and won’t move until you take it off. I threw a sheet over her once and walked out of the room. Came back about 10 minutes later and she was still standing there was a look of desperation that only could be read as “Get it off! Get it off!”
