My dog had surgery on his leg Friday and they said I have to leave the cone on him 24/7 for next 2 weeks. Thing is he's so freaked out by it and thrashes around banging his leg. When I take him potty he wont go cuz he can't sniff the perfect spot.
He's not messing with the wound at all for the moment. I decided only to put it on him when I sleep or leave the house. He's much happier without it. Hes literally a Velcro dog, by my side every minute and I work from home. Am I setting myself up for disaster? Or will he begin to mess with it more as it heals and gets itchy ? Vet would not budge telling me leave it on all the time. Am I being stubborn and selfish not heeding vets advice like my partner has accused me of ?
