The Aftermath

Well, this is a picture of Marley's post-operative wound. As you can see, her left 'armpit' has been thoroughly sliced and diced, and finally sewed up. That piece of rubber is called a Penrose Drain in case you didn't know, and it is intended to allow the wound to drain, instead of swelling up, thereby increasing the rate of healing. Marley was a good girl, and we think she'll recover just fine.

Thank you to Dr. Kolb and her staff at the Red Bank Animal Hospital for their great work!
