A decision is made

The roller coaster doesn't seem to end but I think today we finally found some relief. Daisy ended up back at TLC and then home again Thursday afternoon. Mom flew in Thursday night and Joe had to hold Daisy down in the bed when we came into the house because she was howling and wanted to get to the excitement the others were running around about. She did well until Saturday morning when Joe woke up and she had been sleeping on the wound and it started to bleed. We ran over to TLC and Dr. Salas put two stitches in but when we got home and she went to squat to go to the bathroom, she popped one and the bleeding never stopped. She bled all weekend and then we took her back to TLC yesterday. Dr. Salas wrapped her leg so she can use it and she was walking around on three legs today. Because we are out of options and can't have another weekend like the one that just passed, we've decided to remove the leg. She'll be fine. I know that. We hope to have the consult appointment scheduled tomorrow and do this as soon as possible. The photo with this blog entry was taken Friday. Daisy has definitely returned to her old self. She refused to wear her lampshade (e-collar) on Sunday night. Today she was standing and sitting in her kennel as much as possible because we kept her down all weekend. She looked really happy. I'm thinking maybe it's a relief to her that her leg is taped up and she doesn't have to try not to use it.
