As some of you know my Jasper had knee cap surgery a week ago yesterday. I had to take him early this morning back to his vet. He has a HUGE bruise on the inside of his upper thigh and his knee and part of his leg swelled. Scared, yes. Worse problems in hobbling. His cast is off and his vet had to drain his knee and leg as he was retaining water from sleeping on that leg and licking it too much. He also had another injection but for pain, to get rid of that bruising and the redness on his leg. The bruise was from the clamp during surgery. Now he has on his adorable :dognowink: lampshade and he has to wear it 24/7. He has to keep it on eating, drinking and sleeping. He can't get to his dishes so for lunch he had a plain McDonald's hamburger (not very often) which I hand fed him. The cone is a large and he looks at me as if "mom get this cotton pickin' thing off me...NOW!" We go back to the vet in 4 days. For all the vet did, he didn't even charge us a red cent. I am just so thankful he will be ok.
