YEEEEESSSS!!! Oh my gosh that is as easy as a same-day return home after amputation surgery ever gets. Even after all that, he really did handle it like a champ, and you guys did too. Keep up the fantastic attitude and pawsitivity!!!!
Holler with any questions and keep us posted in an all new Treatment and Recovery Topic now that he's graduated from the diagnosis phase 😉

WELCOME HOME SUPERHERO FINN!!! And YAY for eating, drinking and a good pee puddle!!!
Sometimes after the hospital meds are out of their system arou d day three, the pups may have a vit of a crash and pain meds need to be tweaked. Passing that along just in case....
Yes, good job everybody!!!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Day 4 post OP and he's still doing really good. He only pees in the morning though and hasn't pooped yet but I hope today is the day.
The pain meds seem to be really working which is such a relief. He's on Gabapentin, Meloxicam and Amoxi/Clav. I also give him Arnica which is for wound healing.
The week was rough with not much sleep and I had to go to work but it's so worth it since he's doing so well.
Feel free to follow him on Instagram: @finnigan_3pawd
I'm also looking forward to connect with other tripawd parents.
