krissn333 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Mazie Zipper-Butt! Immediately I thought, "aww, she really IS a bionic FrankenMoose!" Beautiful incision. I am the kind of person that honestly and truthfully admires stuff like that (I'm kind of a dork in that way). My not terribly expert advice would be to leave the stitches in for several days longer than they say to...with Pinky's leg I left them in longer than I was instructed and I think it made a HUGE difference when it came to the size of the scarring (actually you can't even tell that Pinky ripped the backside of her leg open at all!). Since it's in such an area for Mazie that it's going to probably be prone to stretching, I'd want to leave the stitches in longer.

fritofeet Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Wow! She looks 200x better than Stutler did when they zippered her back. I am so glad Mazie is doing great. The hard part looks like it's going to be keeping her quiet. That 3rd pic she looks like she's been hanging out with Towlie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooMooandDoo Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 she's doing well. She seems really sore this morning. . . and is refusing to move. . .which is WONDERFUL!! Overall, recovery has been a piece of cake. She's only gotten up and excited once or twice. . . .when her brothers have gotten home from walks. Besides that, we try to keep her laying down in the dining room, or in her crate. She seems to really dislike her crate at this time though I spent an hour in the dog room cleaning and put her in the crate so I could see her. . .well she cried the whole time. Its sad. . .cause this used to be her favorite place of all times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooMooandDoo Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Would she do better in an xpen right now? We tried that on Thursday with two beds in it. . and a kong. . . and she just stood there looking over it. . . when she shouldn't be standing. So we took it away and she went back to lay on the queen matress on the floor. When we leave we have to crate her, so I need to make her like her crate again. All of this happened from 2 days at the vet in a crate . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooMooandDoo Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 She doing well. We're one week today. . .. . and given how bad it could be. . . .we're not doing so bad She's walking on her own. She's sleeping through the night. She's settled most of the time. She doesn't really give us any trouble except when it's time to walk the boys or time for me to go to work. She continues to HATE her crate. She HATES when the boys go for a walk without her . ... screams, pants, howls, and raises H@$$. We had been crating her to take the boys on a walk, so yesterday I decided to baby gate her in the dog room hoping that would help with the crate anxiety. . . . well. . . she pulled two boxes of stuff off a shelf, destroyed the boxes and contents, destroyed the threshold, and beavered up the door jam. .. . and I was only gone 10-15 minutes. I can't imagine if I had taken them on a real walk. When I got home I was so excited that she was quiet. . . but when I walked in I saw her laying in the middle of her destruction looking so proud of herself, I was floored. She's NEVER destroyed things out of anxiety.. . . only boredom as a puppy. . . .so back to forcing her in her crate . . . she's got to like it sooner or later. So all things considered I feel blessed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
