It was such a relief today for Little Basset to be signed off by the vet.  Stitches are all out and he was very pleased with how the wound has healed.  He’s going to have a slight kink in his ear but with so many other wrinkles and jowls it won’t be noticeable.

This is the little chap contemplating the view by the river.    It was also the moment when he actually obeyed my call to sit.  It was a matter of seconds before he was back on his sniffing run. But I don’t begrudge him such basic basset pleasures after all he’s had to put up with in the last couple of weeks.
