Bonnie’s Future is Here

Back to normal after getting sutures removed.

My beautiful Bonnie finally got her sutures out this morning and now is medicine-free, not to mention pain-free! She’s healing well and will look so cute when her bangs grow back. She doesn’t need her Elizabethan cone anymore and we don’t have to worry about any infection of her surgical area. She’s back to her normal, sometimes growly self, but loving life, Snoopy, Shea, and me. She loves her walks and car rides as per usual, and for me, despite missing her very expressive eyes, it’s much easier to look at her healing face and eyelids without the sutures that she’s had for two weeks. It’s wonderful to know she won’t need 22 drops a day and other oral medications that cost a lot of money for years on end, not to mention the difficulty of scheduling these maintenance periods throughout the day that interfered with my aspiration for an otherwise low-maintenance lifestyle. I still have a gofundme if anyone is interested in helping pay for that bilateral enucleation, but thank you so much to those who contributed toward that one-time expense to give Bonnie a much higher quality of life as an otherwise healthy, blind dog! 🙂
