Thankyou for all your good wishes!
Piglet did have me worried last night, all my other dogs have been ok after surgery so her being how she was did concern me.
She went extremely cold (absolutely no heat from her to the touch) and was shaking uncontrollably last night, so i spoke to tupac who gave me some great advice
I had the heating on full whack all night (me and the other dogs felt like sleeping outside!!!) and she wore a tshirt to keep away from the stitches (she wont wear her vet collar) and i got up every few ours to check on her and offer water (before bed she had a drink and then puked all over my sofa
) so didnt want her to throw up and end up laying in the wet when she was so cold (she was crated)
Im glad to report that this morning her temp was normal and she even ate a tiny amount (i was depserate for her to eat something so she could have a painkiller- have to be given with food )
Finally this evening she ate almost a full meal
the weight has just dropped off her and can see every rib
so now for the feeding up!!
