The good news is that our Border Terrier survived open surgery to remove his gall-bladder and spleen, and take biopsies from his prostate and liver last Friday. He’s home from the Referral practice at Wetherby with a huge wound from his chest to his scrotum, many stitches (haven’t counted them), and a feeding-tube in his neck that we have to put liquid food into five times a day. His dressing came off today, and he already seems quite a bit more comfortable. And he ate his first solid food this afternoon.

Now the nervous wait for the biopsy results.
