This is pretty dumb but I am trying to figure out the best way to make Bubba a T-shirt from our old tshirts that will cover his stump while its healing. I just can''t get a picture in my head of how to do it. Any input would be great

Not a dumb question at all! Many members use an old t-shirt to cover the incision site on front-leggers. Just tie up or hem the other sleeve. For rear leggers, try using an old large pair of boxer shorts, with the tail through the flap. Find these and many more tips in the Tripawds e-books .

I think the problem is that my hubby and I are too fat lol... the Tshirts are too big.  I think I will hit a thrift store :)

Kids shirts and baby onsies tend to work well, you should definitely find a good selection at a thrift store.

I was wondering if anyone has used a child's dress that has a zipper on the back? Seems putting a t-shirt on may be painful right after surgery.
