Her coat is a blowin' in the wind...




And Bijou demonstrates solidarity for his recovering Newfie sis...

I hope things are getting better and she keeps healing nicely. I saw on here that someone put duct tape around the edges of the cone and I think that would be a good way to save your legs if she is running into you.

Thank you, I do feel a lot calmer than I did the first 36 hours! I haven't gotten scraped yet, but the poor girl keeps running it across the pen walls etc by accident. We will both be glad when we can stop using that!

My laundry room walls are still wrecked from Mila's TPLO cone situation! Those things can do some damage :lol:

I didn't mention this before, but when we were sitting there right beside Elvis we took the cone off. He only wore it when he was alone and overnight. He didn't mind it - we took it off him because we couldn't stand him running into things!

I've been taking it off on our walks to the deck, and I've given her a little respite from it when she is laying with her "bum leg" under her so I know she can't lick it. I'm just afraid I might get distracted and not realize she is licking the wound!

Yesterday I put it back on and a couple minutes later noticed something wasn't quite right - I had put it on backwards, so the funnel went out over her shoulder instead of around her head! :crazy:
