Today is my day to babysit our big dog. Yesterday I was out and about, leaving Trent to take care of Romeo by himself.
In the morning I helped set up at Heartland’s auction Wine & Whiskers and in the evening I got to go to this great event.
Trent managed by himself and I hope my day goes as smoothly.
Trent helped with the bandage change this morning. I think we are figuring this out. Today this was accomplished with much less flailing from Romeo and much less stress on our backs. And it even looks ok!
Red for today. What will tomorrow be?
I’ll spare you today’s picture of his incision. But it still looks very good.
My plan for the day – lots of laundry. You go through a lot of blankets with an oozy and slightly incontinent big dog. I’m not sure what’s causing the incontinence at this point, but he’s just a little leaky. Tucking a piddle pad under him when he settles is working well so far.
Romeo was very alert when Trent was getting ready to leave this morning. He even hopped up from the dog bed and took a few steps so he could get closer to be bedroom door so he could see what was up. When I stood by him, he hopped more and made it into the living room but just as far as we have rugs on the floor. Hardwood floors aren’t his friend.
Once Trent left, Romeo turned around and hopped back to bed. He did a face-plant landing on the dog beds but managed to resettle with a little help and is now exhausted.
