Dog Update (warning: graphic images)

I know that you have been worrying about Samson, so I thought Iwould give you an update. They took his bandages off last week to let his wounds "air out". Then at the beginning of this week they took his stitches out. He still has a few rough spots, but he his doing good. He walks pretty well, except after he has been laying down for a while, he is a little stiff. Here are some pices



with bandage and splint on
after the bandages came off


the cone of shame - he could not function with this thing on

taken today, u can't see very well, but this is the bad leg, wound is the white line running up side
looks way better!!

his usual position asleep - he is hard to photo, he shows up as a black blob
We took him over to play with "Boomer" and I think it was a little much for him.  He was pretty sore and didn't hardly eat the next day.  Maybe a little too much too soon.  One nice thing is he can't jump up on people - maybe this will break his habit.
