If you hadn’t guessed from the title of this post, we are gathered here today to talk about incisions. Not just any incisions, but Romeo’s amputation incision. Since he’s such a large dog, the incision from his amputation was massive – 83 staples worth of hugeness.

It has been amazing to watch his healing process. His amputation was on February 3rd, so is has just been a little over four weeks since surgery. I am so impressed at how good he has looked through the whole process.

Here’s a pictorial record of Romeo’s progress. I’m starting with the pictures from right after surgery, so
