Beren update

Beren went back to Pacific Coast Veterinary Hospital to have his incision checked yesterday, 3-28-18, and he is healing well. The bandage was taken off but he still has a week with the staples before they are removed. His foster parents now have some "range of motion" exercises to do with him daily and lots and lots of short walks to building up the muscles and help him heal. Next week he has a return visit to have the staples removed. I'll send an update after that visit.

 

Beren back in foster home after surgery

Beren is now back in his foster home and on a limited schedule for short 5 minute walks several times a day for the next week. He will be returning next week to have the bandage taken off, recheck, and for his foster home to be given his range of motion exercises. Beren is doing well and getting lots of attention.

Meet Beren

Beren is a 1 year old boy who came in to our rescue. He was favoring his left rear leg. We've had him on pain medication since his intake and after several visits to 4 different doctors, it was felt by all that were consulted that he needed surgery to help to be pain free in his future life. Surgery was performed yesterday, 3/20/18 at Pacific Coast Veterinary Hospital, and Beren is going home today. He will be with his foster parents during recuperation and will return in 10-14 days for suture removal and recheck. He will also be given a course of exercises to build up his muscles. Updated photos of Beren in recovery will be added when received.
