Well I sincerely hope he will recover well. The vet said they'd take as much as they needed to to ensure he'd recover well. We have to go back for a check-up on Friday so I hope he continues to progress. My only worry is if he chews at the stump overnight, but short of staying up all night watching him after 2 sleepless nights already I don't know what else I can do.
He's happy, eating well, playing, pooing and weeing so I reckon we've done ok so far..... keeping everything crossed that it continues that way...
