Prayers for Indy.
It's hard for a Newfy to have stitches in a paw pad. When Orka had his vitiligo biopsies the paw pad stitches bust open. The vet said it was healing well, granulating from within, but at the time it was a large open wound. We tried all sorts of bandages etc but he managed to pull everything off. It healed fast, no scar, no trace.
Since then he's matured and no longer is so fussy thank goodness!
Lots of hugs and extra love to Indy.
