Novak's blog

Day 4 post op

Wow, what an amazing feeling today! I feel really great and for the first time, I really feel like a big weight was remove from my shoulders. Novak is doing great, I couldn’t ask for more. He’s in great shape and doesn’t seem to be in pain. He sometime have a panting episode where, maybe he’s unconfortable, but hard to say.

I was worried about seroma so I went to my vet this morning and everything is ok, its not seroma per say, its more edema(I think thats the word) swelling? She touched it and pressed on it, yuk, that made me feel squizy LOL but no fluid. So she suggested to massage him 3 times a day and apply pressure with ice pack after on his back so gravity would take effect. She show me how to do it and Novak was very confortable.

He was happy to get in the car and go to the clinic, greeting everyone, such a sweet boy! I went outside to show all the team how he was hoping and everybody was so happy, I was a bit teary, it was touching to see all of them so happy. Julie, said that when he goes fast and we dont see the left side, it doesnt even show that he’s amputated, she was omg. My vet was really really happy to him and me all happy, cause the last time she saw me, was thursday all day when Novak was so drugged.

When we were all outside, a women was walking by and the look of disgust, she stop and we realize it was a client of our. She said OMG, thats horrible and then my vet all happy said, No, he’s pain free, and he’s happy. Then she responded by If my dog were to be that way, you would KILL him for me!!! We all look at each other and I said, Ok, time to go, bye bye LOLOL and then I went back home. It was the first time out in public and the first comment was that! Ok, I will need to deal with those comments… Im ok, Im use to it, clients say awfull things sometime and I deal with them. I have a thick skin LOL

And then in the car….I felt so good, Novak was healthy, incision is great, everything is going perfect! The only thing I can ask now, is that everything continues to go perfect!

    All that matters is that Novak is happy, healthy and home! Novak doesn’t care about a strangers opinion, and neither should you.
