Sita's stitches removed.

Yesterday, Sita had to go back to the orthopedic surgeon and he was very satisfied with her progress, so far. The stitches were removed (so she doesn't have to wear her pyjamas anymore) and from now on, she starts her rehabilitation-period, which will take 3-5 months. *sigh*


She won't be allowed to jump or run for a while. And she is not an easy patient...she wants to do everything herself. ;-) But she will just have to learn to accept my help....starting by letting me carry her up and down the stairs (and she weighs 50 pounds!), twice a day, since she is used to sleeping in the bedroom, like all my pets. ;-)


But the vet is sure, she will make a complete recovery, so I'm happy. At 8, she is too young to be retired already. ;-)


Her leg looks like a poodle-leg now, which is quite funny. I'll take a photo ASAP. That's a promise.
