One of our dogs is in an inner tube. She looks like a dog about to go for a swim, but with a disgusted expression on her face. We now think she got sap on her butt, which caused chewing, which caused bleeding, which caused scabs, and, since she was about to bury herself in the back yard, I raced out and found this tube thing at a pet store, and she's been in it 24/7 for over two weeks. Who knew it took so long for a butt to heal?
The cone was a disaster, because she couldn't get in or out of the car, or up the brick steps in back to our yard, or drink water out of her dish or eat. She looked like Little Bo Peep turning into a werewolf.
I wouldn't call the tube sophisticated, but at least it looks kind of like she's a lifeguard at the beach, except for the lack of sand and water.
Would she restrain herself from chewing if the tube was off? Can a zebra will itself to be a solid color?
So, every time I look at her I feel guilty, she has those eyes, and I also have the urge to laugh. She is not amused.
