Sunshine gets stitches Part 3 **Graphic Pics**

Day Seven 12/5/2013 - Once her drain was out, it seemed like the inside of the bottom V part disintegrated. Almost like the tube was holding the flesh up and when it was removed it didn't have enough strength to heal there. The hole started in the middle and moved out towards the stitched edges.

Day Ten 12/8/2013 - Sunshine was pouty today. It snowed over 7 inches and no zoomies were allowed. This was the day that it started really looking worse instead of better. Still no heat, smell, pain, and it didn't look infected. Decided to try some manuka honey to see if that would help it heal.

Day four 12/2/13 - My first day back to work and Miss Naughty broke out of her Xpen, and demolished her jammies within the first 3 hours of being left alone. So we broke out the vet wrap!

Day Five 12/3/2013 - The drain came out! Apparently it's really easy to take a drain out. I felt really silly going to the vet for removal. Next time we will know better. (really hope I never need this knowledge) The vet also gave her clearance for not being carried everywhere and locked up 24/7. No running in the yard or zoomies in the house, but she is now allowed to sleep on the couch.

Day Six 12/4/13 - Our friend Toby send Sunshine a get well package! She loved the burpdogs and her squirrel.
