Balance has also been healing

very well. He now has to wear an e-collar cos the wound is starting to dry and close up, and that's the itchiest period, so the e-collar prevents him from disturbing the bandages.

Good boy is looking cheerful and affectionate as ever. His bandages will need to be change once every 3 days, no longer daily. Give him more time to heal and thereafter he can be scheduled to stitch up the wound, pulling skin from his thigh area to close up the gape which is too tight to be stitched back the way it is. We are very relieved that he was not given for amputation from the start. I'm sure Balance will regain his agile balance on all fours very soon enough!

He is now with a caregiver, as we look for the perfect family for him.
