Lucy went to the vet today to have her Fentanyol pain patch removed. It was stapled in, so we had to have it removed at the vet here in Welland, Ontario. It went very well! She didn't even flinch at any point and it only took about 30 seconds! I was very proud of her.

She has an appointment on Thursday the 25th at 2PM to have the other staples (holding the incision closed) removed. The vet said it should go just as easily/quickly and she shouldn't need any sedatives. I was worried they might knock her out to remove them, but he said she should be okay! Yay!

Lucy is STILL doing great. No troubles today. She is still acting like herself even though her super strong pain medication has worn off. She is still on her other tablet pain/inflammatory medication, which is good.

So overall, all is great in the land of the wrinkle monster tripod dog. :) I have more photos and one video for you guys.

The video is of my brother Dan and her. It is so cute :

and one last photo from late last night. I had to ice her incision down and she was all shivery so I put a blanket on her and she fell asleep:
