Miserable Moments

Today, Cosmo had to get surgery on his poor little paw. As you may remember, he got a sore on his paw in November. We thought it was all healed, but Cosmo got a check up at the vets last week, and turns out his paw is acting up. This past week he had to wear a cone, which made him getting around the house even harder. Although it was funny at times, it was also pretty dismal to see him so incapable.

He went into the vet yesterday, and they said he had to have surgery. So today he went in, and to be honest, I can't tell if he's loopy from being drugged, or if he's just being himself. When I came home and saw his bandaged, I felt so sympathetic, so I sat with him for some time, just thinking. Here is a picture of his stylish bandage.

Here is his bandage.

He also has to wear this over his bandage when he goes outside because of the wet snow.

So he has to take pills for the next few weeks, and he hates taking pills. We practically have to force it down his throat. I hate when he has to go through something like this.

About four years ago, Cosmo had a tumor on the side of his eye. He had to wear a cone of shame then, and now his stitches that make his eye look weird and squinted. I cried when I saw him because I was younger, and I started tearing up when I saw him today. I hate this; I hope he heals fast. Everyone wants a happy dog!
