Poutine pooped for the first time after the surgery!!!!! We were worried that he might be constipated and unable to poo since he cannot squat. But last night, Poutine and I slept on the couch (he fussed less this time), he woke me up around 4:00 a.m. with his whimpering. I thought he was whining about his E-collar again, so I put him on my lap and patted him until he fell asleep. Then 15 minutes later, he woke up whining again. I put him back on the couch slowly, but rather than laying there like a log as he's been doing for the past 2 days, he straightened his hind legs so he was standing on the couch as I was putting him down. I looked at him and he started wagging his tail.
I suddenly thought maybe he wants to go poop! I put him gingerly on the training pad and he immediately went into a slight squatting position and 4 small poop came out! What a relieve!!!!!!
I will try and make him walk a bit today.
