Poor Piper!

Our poor little Piper had surgery on Friday to remove all her lady parts (aka an ovariohysterectomy). We dropped her off early Friday morning, she had the surgery Friday afternoon, and we picked her up this afternoon. She's been on valium for the pain so she's a little out of it. She is to be restricted to a leash (no running or jumping) and wear a ridiculous "Elizabethan collar" (that's what the vet called it, I didn't come up with such a name) for the next 10-14 days. This was poor planning on my part because she is going to be in NJ the next two weekends where she and Scout like to run and play like maniacs. Oh dear. We'll do the best we can!

Here is a video of her wearing her new collar. She hasn't quite got a handle on it, as you'll see. She's been banging up the furniture for about an hour now.
