Well, I thought we were safe. She was leaving the sutures from her spay alone but I guess today while I was out she decided she'd had enough and pulled all but 1 out so back to the vet we go. They glued her this time and she's ordered to wear her elizabethan collar 24/7 until next Friday. She's miserable with that thing on too.

Awww, sorry about that. Our vet suggested we put Vicks Vapo rub all around the stiches. Not on them or real near, but all around. Dogs don't like the smell of it. This kept Pooh Bear from bothering his stiches.

Poor little Daisy.... /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/blush.gif I hope she will be okay with the collar and won't suffer too much.
It's for your own good Daiz!

I hate when mine have to wear those things. They look so uncomfortable and cause the pups to be so clumsy.
The Vicks Vapor Rub sounds interesting...I'll have to remember that one.

Picture below is what I got for Maggie as an alternative to that nasty elizabethan collar. You just cut it to size and there is no problem eating or drinking with it on and no banging into walls! Here is the website: http://www.sitstay.com/dog/supplies/serv...productId=40541
