Just wanted to send you both a virtual hug.

AARGGGHHH, just noticed that last post put me on 666.....had to send another hug quickly!!

Yes i meant the oringinal injury

Thanks bitkin.

Aw, thanks mish. I thought thats what you meant.

Just read this fully, sorry to hear of Jake's ordeal.I hope he's on the mend and back to his bouncy self soon.

Thanks, me too lol. He is looking better tonight, not great but better. He also got a new, smaller, buster collar which is so much better for him

I have only just fully read your thread. Your poor baby.. what a horrific injury. I hope you are both ok. Big hugs from me and Poppy.

Glad he is home and I bet her is getting spoilt
Another hug for Jake and you xxxx

I somehow missed this - OMG that wound is horrific Poor Jake, that must have been agony

How awful for you, no wonder you were so upset Glad to hear he is on the mend.

Huge gentle hugs to you both xxx

Thanks guys. He seems ok today... He hates the bustar collar, but is putting up with it now. He doesnt seem in pain, but its difficult to know... Im sure the metacam will be helping most of it though. I found out that the infection started coz they hadnt let his wound drain properly! The first 3 or 4 days after it was first stitched, it was weeping a lot. But there was a bit at the bottom which had nowhere to go. It was like a wee bulge, but the vet nurse told me it was just swelling so I thought nothing of it. So the build up of fluid, is what caused the infection! So that is why he had to get the drain in... His wound is looking good though, and I hope he heals really fast now. Will try and get pics up of his wound now, later when I can borrow my mums mobile.
