I have a question... until this morning her incision has been dry, this morning I noticed that when she squatted to go potty that as she strained there was a trickle of pink fluid that came out of the lowest part of the incision.  I dabbed it with a sterile gauze pad and it isn't active bleeding, I think it is just some drainage, no foul odor but I do think she needs a bigger cone because if she pretzels herself she can lick the site.

Any suggestions?

Just got back from the vet... she's good, minimal amounts of pinkish fluid.  Jane Doe has a new cone, bigger so she can't lick.  She was getting to be quite the contortionist. 

Thanks ya'll, you're the best!

My nasty tempered terrors did not accept her but I wanted to be sure that she was completely healed before we placed her anywhere.  She took up residence in the guest room with her piles of toys.

My daughter had dibs, so yesterday we met at the park with her family and their dog Sydney...Sydney is an incredibly patient and tolerant Aussie shepherd and after a little walk and some playtime we went to daughter's home.

janedoe was playing ball in the back yard with Sydney in no time at all and has settled in amazingly well.  She has a new name.  She is now called "Jewel" because she is such a treasure.  She hasn't spent too much time walking about because the grandson's are taking turns having her in their laps.

I am so relieved that this "took" so well, I did have 3 more on the waiting list as back up but I was really not wanting to have to move her around.... We are thrilled!

Daughter has a special place in her heart for "found and rescued" pups.  She says that they are so grateful to be where they are instead of where they were.  Jewel woke up ready to play this morning... she is awesome!
