Benny had his surgery.

    Benny had his surgery.

    His surgery was today and everything went great.  He has been soooo groggy since we picked him up.  It is so weird seeing him like this, but he is just so cute.  He just keeps nodding off. 

    She was able to remove most, if not all of the stuff in his paw pad that was causing the abnormal nail growth and he now has stitches on the bottom of his foot.   That is to stay covered for at least another day, after that we just have to keep him from licking it and keep it dry.  In 10 days, his stitches will be removed. 

    We also had his teeth cleaned and they had to remove two teeth.  Crying  But I am soooo glad we got this done.  He is only three and his teeth are so bad.  Too bad his teeth weren't properly taken care of before I got him, I don't think he ever chewed on anything before me.

    But here are some cute pictures of him post surgery.

    Here you can see one missing tooth:

    When Pirate had foot surgery baby socks were the best - I bought a 6-pack and just put a new pair on over the bandages every few hours.

    Benny, feel better soon!

    LOL Yes!  That's actually what the vet tech gave us.  She said she took them from her neice and they work wonderfully.  After the bandages come off tomorrow, he'll be wearing baby socks.
