First night home wasn't that bad. Jack slept (or at least laid mostly still) all night with his e-collar on (he is NOT a fan of that thing). Jack is definitely a "no-energy" dog this morning. He's completely out of it (which is probably a good thing). Now a word about the veterinary pharmacy industry. You would think that by now, companies making drugs for animal consumption would find some way to make them taste good to animals. Getting Jack to eat his antibiotics is probably the most challenging part of all of this. Thankfully he's trusting enough to let us put them in the back of his mouth - albeit not without a good bit of resistance. This is Jack today, lying on the "new" leg. Note the face of "go away and leave me alone."
Update - Jack's urine has returned to normal at lunchtime today (it had a good bit of blood in it initially - expected since he was cathetered), and his appetite is starting to come back, but still very mopey.
