Whelp, I got the critter home. She's hammered.. After a somewhat dramatic removal from the car, She is now sleeping soundly at my feet. Looks like I'm taking off work tomorrow also. That'll give me 4 days with her to get the healing started.
Sounds pretty good. Best of luck. Dogs heal pretty fast so hopefully she'll be up and about real soon.
You may recall my vet didn't want to use anesthesia on my old girl when she had growth on the neck that was slowly growing larger.
He did a local - I held her - and his assistant helped while he quickly shaved around the growth, cut it out out, sutured it and we were out in 40 minutes or less. Fricken amazing.
