OK
Shotgun (no more name suggestions please) came through the surgery well. She is now minus a tumour the size of a small lemon (Key Lime??) which the vet said didn't look malignant to him and I'm too cheap to pay $150 to find out for sure. I trust this guy. At last check, she was resting and sleeping off the meds. Since she sleeps almost all day anyway, how do I tell when she's done? LOL
She gets the stitches out in two weeks and that's when we start looking into her eyes and the possibility of repairing them. If not, she's as good as she is going to get. She has started eating kibble so we're waiting to see if her tartar problem goes away or if we have to take her to the doggie dentist for a teeth cleaning. I'm planning on posting a picture of her at that truck stop the next time I'm there, with a note saying something like: "Found, one dog. part corgi, overall black. Poor health, eyes, ears and internals fucked up. After a good bath, brushout, another bath and several vet visits and around $1000 invested, I now have a good happy dog and whoever lost her, shame on you for neglecting her that way!"
or something.
I will visit her in September and will finally get a few pics to share.
PS How do I get photos off my cell phone without emailing them to myself?
